Paul Wullems

Esta imponente figura tallada en madera de nogal del siglo XX representa a la musa del teatro, probablemente Melpómene o Talía, según la expresión y el gesto que adopta. Con una altura superior a los 70 cm, se trata de una escultura de gran presencia, concebida para ocupar un lugar destacado en salones, bibliotecas o espacios dedicados a las artes.

La talla revela una ejecución minuciosa, propia de la escultura decorativa decimonónica, con especial atención al movimiento de los ropajes, la postura elegante y los detalles faciales. El nogal, madera noble y de grano fino, aporta profundidad y calidez a la pieza, además de permitir un acabado detallado que resalta las curvas y texturas del modelado.

En torno a la cintura, se aprecia un elemento singular: una segunda máscara o rostro tallado entre los pliegues del vestido, posiblemente una alusión directa al teatro clásico, donde las máscaras simbolizan la dualidad entre comedia y tragedia. Este detalle añade una dimensión simbólica y artística que enriquece la lectura de la obra.

Debido a su antigüedad, la figura presenta pequeñas faltas o restauraciones, comunes en piezas de este tipo, que no afectan su valor histórico ni estético. Más allá de su función decorativa, esta escultura encarna el espíritu del arte teatral y la tradición escultórica europea, siendo testimonio de una época en la que las musas eran fuente de inspiración tangible en el mobiliario y la ornamentación culta.

Envío certificado y buen embalaje.

Unique Objects

Occasionally, two different bidders may show up in the bidding history with the same bid amount. This occurs when one user's bid is exactly the same as an automatic (maximum) bid placed by another user earlier. Since the auto-bid was placed first, this takes preference. The bidding history will show both bids, with the auto-bid ranked as the higher of the two.


Double bid

It may appear that the same bid has been placed by two different bidders. This can occur if someone places a bid in another currency which is then rounded to the same amount as the previous bid in %{local_currency}.

This can occur for the following reasons:
<p>1. If an opening bid does not meet a lot’s reserve price (hidden minimum), buyers may try outbidding their earlier bid in order to find that lot’s RP.</p>
<p>2. If an auto-bid (user-set maximum bid) is outbid, the bidding log will show the first and final steps of that user's auto-bid in a row. The new highest bid will be shown at the top.</p>

Why is this bidder outbidding him- or herself?
