CHAGALL MARC: (1887-1985) Russian-French Artist. A good, unusual signed 5 x 3.5 photograph of Chagall standing in a full length pose, with a paint brush in one hand as he works on a figure within a large painting which is rolled out on the floor beneath him. Signed in blue ink with his name alone to a clear area at the base of the image and again signed and inscribed to the verso, and dated twice in his hand, Antibes 1967 and Paris 1971. The original Kodak photograph bears the small printed date of February 1967 to the lower white border. VG £200-300 1967 was a productive year for Chagall, in which he worked on several stained-glass windows, and the Louvre in Paris exhibited seventeen large scale paintings and other works under the title 'Message Biblique'. However, the present image perhaps shows the artist working on his set design for a new production of Die Zauberflote (The Magic Flute) which opened in February 1967.
Francois Rude, (French, 1784 ~ 1855), Young Neapolitan fisher boy playing with a turtle by the seaside, mid 19th century cast after an 1833 marble model, bronze, stamped with a seal inscribed REPRODUCTION MECANIQUE, A COLLAS BREVETE The boy portrayed nude aside from a Phrygian style cap over his loose curled hair, and an amulet around the neck, looking slightly to sinister, the left arm extended to a turtle on a leash, the integral oval base adorned with fishing nets 24 cm high, 26 cm wide CATALOGUE NOTES: Francois Rude was one of the leading sculptors of the early 19th century Romantic movement. His subjects, ranging from unassuming genre scenes to poignant political sculpture such as the soldierly figural group called the Marseillaise (1833-36) which adorns the Arc de Triomphe, are characterised by a strong emotional quality. The spontaneous smile of the boy, exposing his teeth, seemingly unaware of the spectator, is a good example of this interest in emotion, showcasing Rude's departure from strict, classically inspired Academic sculpture The model of the Young Fisher Boy was first exhibited in plaster at the Paris Salon in 1831, and was later fashioned in marble in 1833. The marble sculpture is held by the Louvre. The stamp of inventor Achille Collas places this cast in the mid-nineteenth century, probably between 1840-60, when Collas had patented his pantograph-like machine for creating small-scale bronze reproductions of sculptures
Auguste Rodin, (French, 1840 ~ 1917), The Age of Bronze, 20th century cast after a model from 1877, patinated bronze, the nude portrayed contrapposto, with head inclined, the eyes closed and lips slightly parted, the right arm raised to meet the head, the left hand loosely forming a fist, inscribed A. Rodin and RUDIER FONDEUR - PARIS to the base 101 cm high, base 27.5 cm wide CATALOGUE NOTES: Rodin created The Age of Bronze in 1877, using a young Belgian soldier as his model. This was the French sculptor's first full-scale figure. The sculptor had just returned from a journey to Italy, and was greatly influenced by Michelangelo Buonarotti's famous Dying Slave, whose pose, specifically the raised arm, is recalled in Rodin's bronze. The sculpture's lifelikeness allegedly resulted in Rodin having to prove that he had not cheated by simply making moulds directly from his model's body, but that he had really modelled it himself from drawings. Though Rodin was strongly influenced by models from the Renaissance and Antiquity, his incredible attention to naturalism of body and form, often rendered in highly textured surfaces and dynamic poses, shows a move away from the more rigid Neoclassical tradition and towards a striking modernity The smaller model of The Age of Bronze was conceived in 1903-4 and cast at various points during the 20th century, including with the foundries of Alexis and Georges Rudier. The present item could possibly be part of these limited 20th century castings. A very similar example to the present work sold at Christie's London, 9 February, 2011, Lot 2 Please note: this item is of 20th century make
A French patinated bronze model of the Faun with Clappers, last quarter 19th century, cast after the Antique, the figure portrayed in dance, a cymbal held in each hand, his right foot atop a scabellum, the oval base inscribed Louvre in the maquette 58cm high CATALOGUE NOTES: The marble original of the Faun with Clappers resides in the Uffizi Galleries, Florence, and indeed was first recorded in that city by Albert Rubens (son of the Dutch master) in 1665, he having seen the piece in the collection of the Grand Duke of Tuscany. It had been moved to the Tribuna of the Uffizi by 1688. The model was always a popular one, being light hearted and playful, and was therefore much reproduced from the Renaissance onwards. A full-scale bronze version was made by Soldani for Prince Liechtenstein in 1695 and again for the Duke of Marlborough at Blenheim Palace, and small versions were produced by Zoffoli and Righetti, -and indeed by many others ever since
An Italian patinated bronze model of the Roman she-wolf, possibly workshop of Francesco Righetti, late 18th century, cast after the Antique, her head turned to sinister with jaws agape; later mounted onto a rectangular white marble plinth with socle The bronze 12cm high, 21cm long; including the base, 21cm high, 23cm long CATALOGUE NOTES: The Etruscan original of the She-Wolf with Romulus and Remus beneath, dating to circa 490 BC is held at the Capitoline Museum, Rome. The infant founders of Rome would have been cast to the base which in the bronze offered here has been later replaced Righetti catered mainly for wealthy foreigners engaged on their Grand Tours. He had a large workshop and produced faithful replicas in various sizes, of well known statues based on classical models. In later life Righetti worked closely with the celebrated neo~classical sculptor Antonio Canova in casting large scale bronzes
Antoine Bofill, (Spanish, 1875 ~ after 1925), a bronze group of a horse and man, called At the End of the Day, the horse shown drinking from a trough, the rider to its right hand side, portrayed drinking from a flask held above his head with outstretched arms 46 cm high, 46 cm wide, 24 cm deep including associated rose marble base CATALOGUE NOTES: Antoine Bofill was born in Barcelona and trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in his native city, but he was active in the Parisian art world for most of his career. Bofill is primarily known as an Animalier, the group of 19th century sculptors specialising in animal groups. Bofill experimented with different materials in his usually small scale objects, including ivory and silver. This more substantial bronze unites Bofill's prowess as an animalier with his lesser known but significant interest in figural sculpture. Catching the figures off guard, showing the man in unassuming country attire and the horse with its mouth in the rippling water, the group also demonstrates the sculptor's eye for naturalism
