- La CothurneBy Agathon LéonardLocated in Missouri, MO"La Cothurne" 1901 Gilt Bronze Approx 21.5" High (to raised hand) Signed and Dated Foundry Mark "Susse Freres" Originally modeled in white biscuit porcelain this Greek dancer is a from a set of eight created for a dining table. They were immediately successful when they were exhibited in the Sevres pavilion at the 1900 Exhibition. Individual figures could be ordered and "La Cothurne" proved the most popular. Their success led to the firm of Susse buying the right to cast versions in metal. Agathon Leonard (1841-1923) is one of the well-known French Art Nouveau sculptors. Born in Lille in 1841, he first studied there before moving to Paris where he studied at the Ecole des Beaux Arts under Eugene Delaplanche. He gained recognition at the annual Expositiones Universelles, winning a Silver Medal there in 1889 and gold in 1900. His most important piece, Jeu L'echarpe, was the best known series of Sevres production at the turn of the century and sold out at the 1900 Expo in Paris and later was given as a gift by the French Gov't to Nicholas II at the Hermitage. His bronzes were cast at the Susse Freres Editeurs Foundry. He worked also in marble, quartz and ivory. He also produced Art Nouveau medallions...Category

Price Upon Request - Native American Girl with DollBy Dave PowellLocated in Missouri, MONative American Girl with Doll By Dave Powell (American, b. 1954) Signed on Back 17.5" x 8" Dave Powell is a native son of Montana, in a world of change and transition; few can say they have roots in a single geography that go back four generations. Dave's pedigree in art is just about as deep. He is the son of artists Ace Powell and Nancy McLaughlin Powell. That heritage leads back to the likes of Charlie Russell and Joe De Young, both famous for their abilities to "tell the story" through their art. His father, Ace Powell, was a prolific Western artist whose first childhood paint-box set was a gift from Charlie and Nancy Russell. Dave became a serious student of art in his mid-teens, and has been a professional artist most of his adult life. Over the years he has worked with Bob Scriver, Ned Jacob and Robert Lougheed. Dave will be the first to give thanks...Category

- Discord - InkwellLocated in Roma, RMArtist: Giovanni Battista Alloati Title: Discord - Inkwell Medium: bronze sculpture with marble base Signature: signed on the right side “G. B. Alloati” Titled in the centre “La Discordia” On the back stamp of the “Fonderia opera d’Arte Betta Corrado – Torino” The Discordia - Inkwell by Giovanni Battista Alloati is a decorative object that skilfully combines the allegorical dimension with the Secessionist treatment of volumes and lines. this sculpture presents the typical traits of Art Nouveau language, accompanied by Symbolist accents that can be seen in the sinuous handling of the bodies and in the uncanny rendering of the personification of Discordia, with its characteristic snake-shaped hair. Giovanni Battista Alloati is also known as a skilful portraitist of illustrious personalities of early 20th century Italy. In 1911 he was among the artists involved in the creation of statues of athletes for the Turin Stadium, while in the post-war period, the sinuous secessionist line gradually disappeared in favour of a balanced return to order.Category
