Artsonline has dated this Vienna Cold Painted Bronze to the 1910s.
Brief Description:
This is a truly incredible quality late 19th/early 20th-century Austrian cold-painted bronze Orientalist sculpture, beautifully modelled in the manner of the celebrated Viennese bronze artist Franz Bergman (1861–1936).
The gentleman stands holding a string of beads, beside a separate miniature folding merchant's table displaying an assortment of intricately modelled wares and accessories.
The quality of the sculptural detailing is particularly appealing, from the gentleman's expressive facial features and carefully modelled hands to the natural folds of his garments and the delightful miniature objects displayed upon the table.
The original-style polychrome decoration combines warm earthy colours, rich greens and subtle contrasting tones, all enhanced by a wonderfully aged patina.
A fabulous example of the Orientalist subjects so popular among Austrian bronze manufacturers during the late Victorian and Edwardian periods.
