umbrella stand with geometric structure; Josef Hofmann Vienna Secession
About the Item
This rectangular umbrella stand with a geometric structure is attributed to Joseph Hoffmann and dates from the Vienna Secession era. The monochrome color scheme and the reduced geometric design are typical of the arts and crafts of this time. (Secession also secession; Latin secessio "splitting off", "separation") describes in art the turning away of a group of artists from an art direction that is no longer felt to be contemporary.
Apart from a serial number, the umbrella stand has no manufacturer's stamp.
The object is attributed to the artist based on other sales advertisements. In the original state, the stand has a rattan covering on the upper handle. Unfortunately this is missing completely.
Unfortunately, the condition is not particularly good. The paint is chipping, the rattan is missing and it's badly worn overall.

(Frederic Backlar, Bonhams, New York, 2012, lot 172) Osemwede (reigned 1816-1848) was the first Oba to decree that human heads could be carved for the altars of chiefs of royal lineage, rather than just wooden antelope and perhaps goat heads. Therefore, chiefs of blood enjoyed in Benin City (but not throughout the Kingdom of Benin, where antelope heads continued to be placed on the altars of their ancestors well into the 20s.
