"Shepherd and Sheep", Stunning Art Deco Mosaic Table in Green, Red and Gold
About the Item
This stunning Art Deco table depicting a shepherd with a sheep over his shoulders, with a golden crook in his hand, is a tour de force of mosaic artisanry. The artist has used tesserae in stone and glass in tones of deep red, forest green, bright gold and silver to compose the scene, interspersed with areas of rough concrete that create subtle differences in level from one area to another. The base is composed of beautifully-forged wrought iron, with a twisted rod beneath the table top, and curving feet that suggest another fine artist at work. Although not signed, the artistry suggests that it was made in one of Italy's finest mosaic workshops in the 1940s.

- "Shepherd and Shepherdess, " Monumental Art Deco Sculptures, Probably by De VeghBy Geza De VeghLocated in Philadelphia, PAMonumental and dignified, this pair of Art Deco sculptures depict a shepherd and shepherdess, crisply shaped and stylized like the best of 1930s public sculpture, and painted in rich but subdued colors with an effect like sun-bleached stucco. It is our estimation that they were sculpted by Geza De Vegh, the Hungarian-American sculptor who created a range of pieces for the Lenox and Lamberton Scammell porcelain works, both in Trenton, New Jersey, as well as a group of rare ceramic pieces for the Phoenix Company. Importantly, De Vegh's work was very popular among set designers and art directors in Hollywood. His works are evident in the background of important Bette Davis films such as "The Letter," art directed by Carl Weyl; and "Now Voyager...Category
