This cold-painted bronze sculpture from the 1920s depicts an Arabic man riding a camel in an Orientalist style. The piece employs warm brown and polychrome enamel finishes, showing a Bedouin rider draped in a brown cloak and yellow tunic, holding a rifle detail atop heavily detailed camel saddle trappings. The cast bronze displays intricate textures across the animal's fur, the rider's garments, and the ornate blanket draped over the saddle. Measuring 17 cm high, 15 cm wide, and 7 cm deep, the sculpture fits easily on a bookshelf or mantelpiece. In a modern home, this decorative object suits a gentleman's library, study, or living room display cabinet as a collectible art piece. Collectors of early twentieth-century metalwork will find this sculpture a practical addition to existing displays of decorative bronzes and historical figures.

FAQs

Vienna bronzes are polychrome cast metal figures produced in Austria from the mid-nineteenth century onwards, known for detailed casting and Orientalist subject matter.

These figures were cast in bronze using lost-wax methods and subsequently painted with unfired oil paint or chemical enamels to create naturalistic polychrome finishes.

Authentic Franz Xaver Bergman pieces typically feature a mark depicting a letter B inside a vase shape alongside crisp casting detail and distinct surface colouring.

Place the sculpture on a dark wood desk, bookshelf, or mantelpiece where the intricate detailing and contrasting colours can be highlighted by direct accent lighting.

Dust the item gently using a soft microfibre cloth or camel hair brush, taking care to avoid water, solvents, or abrasive cleaners that can strip the unfired paint layers.
