Lorenzl, a well listed and very sought after sculptor, is famous for his Art Deco bronze dancers. Several are pictured in Art Deco and Other figures by Bryan Catley on pages 207-211. There are 22 Lorenzl sculptures pictured in Catley's book. I believe the model we are offering is quite rare and seems to be lacking in every Art Deco bronze and sculpture collection. The dancer is beautifully sculptured. Her face is lovely and composition divine. She delicately stands on her tip toes dancing on a stylized flower head inscribed Lorenzl. The sculpture is mounted on its original black an gold marble base. This falls into the naughty category because the ballerina forgot to wear undergarments, although she is wearing her ballerina dress and shoes. The positioning of her hands and fingers are very graceful. One of the best Lorenzl bronzes we have had the pleasure to see. From the bottom of the base to the top f her head it measures 11-1/2 inches high. Excluding the base, the bronze alone measures 11 inches. Widest width from the side of her dress to her extended hand measures 5-1/2 inches. The octagonal black and gold marble base measures 3-1/2 inches wide, 3-1/2 inches long, and 3/4 inch high. Weight 3 lbs. Excellent condition guaranteed to please as are all our items. (Item #72069)   « Less
