Late 1800's Black Forest Hand Carved Wood Dog Sculpture Highly Detailed 8.5 Inch
Late 1800’s Black Forest Hand Carved Walnut, Wood Dog Sculpture. Highly Detailed measuring approximately 8.5″L x 6 1/2″H x 3 1/2W and weighing approximately 9.8 ounces. The sculpture is beautifully carved from the fur to the definition of the foot pads, toe nails and collar, this is just a magnificent piece with brown glass eyes and aged patina. It is very reminiscent of pieces by Walter Mader, who was a great Swiss wood carver in the late 1800’s to early 1900’s, but I have no paperwork to prove that it is his piece. He carved canines, exclusively. A great addition to any collection of fine Black Forest wood carvings. Very good pre-owned condition with a few small shallow age cracks to the under belly and under the chin if you view with magnification. Part of the front left paw has also been reattached, but it is difficult to see. My husband’s father and my father brought back many lovely pieces of jewelry, porcelain, clothing, perfumes, and household items to their new brides upon their return from Europe after WWII. Many of the items have gone to family, but there are still many items that need a home, and they are listed here. There are also other items, long held family treasures that also need to find new homes, as we have no room in ours for them. Many of them have been passed on from generation to generation over 100’s of years. We hope they find a home with you. I bought many gemstones, carvings, minerals, gold, and other fine items while in the jewelry industry. Please look at my other loose carvings and gems for design or collection.

A Maiden and her Robes, Lovely Wooden Sculpture. Perhaps it was part of a religious group, or perhaps it was conceived as a standalone piece. In any case, it’s an affecting work from 18th century Europe. Dimensions, including the (later) stand, are about 8.75 inches high by 3 inches wide. The left hand is missing, as is the right foot. Condition is otherwise quite good all around, with an attractive, fresh appearance. There is a lot of pleasure to be had in contemplating this work.

Large & Impressive Late 15th Century Antique Carved Wood Sculpture of The Pieta
Late 15th Century carved wooden sculptures don’t get much better than this! Of large proportions, this fine carving depicts The Pieta. Flemish or South German origin. As a theme in Christian art, depiction of the Virgin Mary supporting the body of the dead Christ. Some representations of the Pietà include John the Apostle, Mary Magdalene, and sometimes other figures on either side of the Virgin, but the great majority show only Mary and her Son. The Pietà was widely represented in both painting and sculpture, being one of the most poignant visual expressions of popular concern with the emotional aspects of the lives of Christ and the Virgin. The theme, which has no literary source but grew out of the theme of the lamentation over Christs body, first appeared in the early 14th century in Germany. It soon spread to France and enjoyed great popularity in northern Europe in the 14th and 15th centuries. Although the Pietà remained mostly a Franco-German theme, its supreme representation is that completed by Michelangelo in 1499 and housed in St. Peters Basilica in Rome. Influenced by the northern style, Michelangelo draped the figure of Christ across Marys lap. Through this pyramidal design and the details of his figures, Michelangelo created a scene that displayed at once agony, solemnity, and heroic resignation. The format of the Virgin bearing the body of Christ on her knees was standard until the 16th century, when, influenced by the Renaissance concern with logic and proportions, artists usually depicted Christ lying at the Virgins feet, with only his head propped against her knees. This form was adopted by Italian Baroque art and was passed on to Spain, Flanders, and Holland. Most religious art suffered a decline after the 17th century, but, because of its special emotional appeal, the Pietà continued to be a vital theme through the 19th century. Traces of old polychromy. Surface wear commensurate with age. This figure displays very well. We are a member of LAPADA (London and Provincial Antique Dealers Association) and CINOA.

Sculpture in carved wood. Lion lying down. Italy, late 16th century
Sculpture in carved wood. Italy, late sixteenth century. It conserves light remains of polychromy. The lion, reclining on its four legs, shows a curious expression of sadness. This type of animals, for their symbolism, were very used in heraldic decorations, but it was also common for them to appear in elements associated with the greater political power of the territory, especially sarcophagi of monarchs for their association with royalty (as in the case of the sepulcher of Enrique II in the Chapel of the New Kings of Toledo, for example). · Size: 16x27x8 cm. Escultura en madera tallada. Italia, finales del siglo XVI. Conserva ligeros restos de policromía. El león, recostado sobre sus cuatro patas, muestra una curiosa expresión de tristeza. Este tipo de animales, por su simbología, eran muy empleados en decoraciones heráldicas, pero también era frecuente que aparecieran en elementos asociados con el mayor poder político del territorio, especialmente sarcófagos de monarcas por su asociación con la realeza (como en el caso del sepulcro de Enrique II en la Capilla de los Reyes Nuevos de Toledo, por ejemplo).
