Scultura III Tomasso by Brothers Fine Art, 1st Ed

About the Item

Scultura III Tomasso by Brothers Fine Art. Published by Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd, United Kingdom, 2010. 1st Ed hardcover with dust jacket. 80 pages. The Tomasso Brothers are a family richly endowed with great sensitivity to sculpture. They strive to deal in excellence, acquiring bronzes, marbles, terracottas, waxes and ivories which they show in critically acclaimed and enormously successful exhibitions and are accompanied by intelligent and lively catalogues. This is the third in their series of such catalogs, and accompanies an exhibition at the Otto Naumann Gallery, New York. The content is a carefully selected range of works from the early Renaissance to the Neoclassical period. Many of the entries epitomize the artistic tastes and cultural ideals of their time and provide a rich visual journey through 500 years of sculpture. Works include a rare and significant early plaque of Madonna and Child by Luca della Robbia; a gilt bronze masterpiece of Cupid astride a Dolphin by Francesco di Virgilio Fanelli; a Farnese Bull by Giovanni Francesco Susini; an unusual and eye-catching terracotta, previously unpublished, of a black man in ragged clothes by Joseph Willems; and a highly original bust of the Emperor Caracalla by Joseph Claus, a milestone in the development of early Roman Neoclassicism. The catalog accompanied an exhibition at Otto Naumann Ltd., New York, 21-31 October 2010. NPT Books, a division of Trent Antiques, has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions.

    By Sinke & Van Tongeren
    Located in Haarlem, NL
    Hammerhead (Scopus umbretta) is a medium sized wading bird. The shape of his head with a long bill and crest at the back looks like a hammer. This gave the species its name after the Afrikaans word for hammerhead ‘Hamerkop’. We sculpted this Hamerkop in a very gracious and friendly pose. Its base is tailor made with antique wood and velvet. Housend under an antique 19th century glass dome...
