Large Bronze Figure of a Knight C.1900

1900 - 1920
Description

Splendid large bronze figure of a medieval knight or warrior c.1900. Measuring 36" tall to the tip of the sword. Dressed in a helmet and chain mail tunic, with a dagger at his waist and carrying a large kite shaped shield on his left arm which features (unusually) a Latin cross with the cross of St Andrew (or Saltire) behind, suggesting a Scottish connection perhaps. With his right arm he raises a long broadsword in salute or victory. Very well cast in bronze with superb colour and detail. Stood on an 18" x 12" base. Sighed in the cast E Bull (or Butt?). Excellent condition.

Note the sword is removable for delivery.

This large bronze figure from around 1900 depicts a medieval knight dressed in chainmail armour and a helmet, standing atop a rocky base. The patinated dark brown sculpture shows the warrior holding a long broadsword aloft in his right hand and carrying a kite-shaped shield on his left arm, with a dagger secured at his waist. Cast from dark bronze, the piece stands 91.5 cm high, 51 cm wide, and 40.5 cm deep. Suiting a gentleman's library, this Gothic Revival statue functions effectively when displayed on a mantelpiece. The construction displays fine detail across the armour, tunic texture, and facial features, resting upon an integrated base. The solid metal composition provides substantial weight and durability for interior display.

FAQs

During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Gothic Revival and Romanticism sparked widespread interest in medieval chivalry, prompting foundry artists to create bronze figures depicting knights and historic combatants.

Sculptures from this period were typically produced using the lost-wax or sand-casting methods, followed by hand-chiselling to refine details such as chainmail texture and the application of a chemical patina.

Authentic period castings display natural handling wear to raised surface areas, crisp hand-chased details, appropriate seams, potential sculptor or foundry signatures, and an aged patina within the recessed contours.

A bronze figure functions as a focal accent when placed on a dark wood mantelpiece, an office desk, or integrated into a curated bookshelf display alongside classic leather-bound books.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft brush or dry microfibre cloth, avoiding chemical solvents, harsh polishes, or water that could alter or strip the original patination.
