L'Hiver, Winter, Bronze Sculpture, Lost Wax Method , Romantic, Florence, Italy
By Matthew James Collins
Located in Houston, TX
L'Hiver, which is French for winter. An evocative title which pretty much explains the piece. Number 1 out of a production of Seven.
Artist Statement: I am very happy to announce that two of my bronze works are now available in a limited edition of 7. The first one, shown above, is my vision of Eros. He is more popularly known in the Roman interpretation of a chubby baby or young boy with an bow and arrow. I have always been more intrigued with the original Greek embodiment of the this deity as a young man. More than the god of love, Eros was a personification of the power of creation. He was balanced by his antithesis was Thanatos, that of destruction. In fact, Thanatos is currently in the design process. This work will exist in an edition of 7 and 2 artist's proofs. Each piece is hand chased by myself and I apply the patina as well.
The sculpture was created using the Lost Wax...
