Antique Bronze Dog Portrait of a Cavalier King Charles "Thigley" French School (possibly Franck Burty Haviland) Lost wax bronze casting Circa 1910 5 7/8 x 9 x 3 1/4 A sophisticated bronze casting of a Cavalier King Charles spaniel made in lost wax casting (cire perdue) from the beginning of the 20th century by Valsuani Foundry. This an unusual bronze approached in its aesthetic that’s reminiscent of the work of great animal sculptors of the second half of the 19th century except in this presentation which is more avant-garde for the time with a much looser, more impressionistic execution. The patina is a superb bronze color, brown and slightly greenish, going in places towards a more antique green. The attitude of the dog is extremely well and sensitively rendered with the placement of material unlike the renderings of a bronze by Barye...

The statues were distributed worldwide. Antonio Carli, a sculptor, was the founder of the Atelier A. Carli Frères, together with family members. They came from Bagni di Lucca...

Hans Bitterlich (1860 Vienna – 1949 ibid.), Johannes Gutenberg, 1900. Plaster on wooden base, 95 cm (height) x 65 cm (width) x 50 cm (depth), approx. 30 kg, signed “H. BITTERLICH” on the side. - Showing heavier wear in places and minor chips - The Fate of Humanity - This larger-than-life, monumental head is believed to be the 1:1 model for the head of the Johannes Gutenberg monument erected in 1900 on the Lugeck in Vienna. Designed to be viewed from below, the head with its flowing beard is equally that of a thinker and a prophet. The heavy humanist cap depicts Gutenberg as the initiator of a cultural revolution. Through the printing press, not only will every person ultimately be able to partake in the source of knowledge in the future, but the new medium’s capacity for expression also accelerates the production of knowledge in ways unforeseeable at the time. It is precisely these consequences that Gutenberg—filled with deep solemnity—seems to foresee with a prophetic gaze. The prophetic quality is reinforced by the facial expression, reminiscent of Michelangelo’s Moses...
