AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Art Nouveau figurine of a girl feeding her cat. Made by the Van Paridon brothers at the beginning of the 20th century. It is made of a reinforced gypsum, the so-called Paridur, and decorated with gold and green. This decoration gives a bronze-like effect. On the back stamped with GvP and the model number 629.
Around 1905 the brothers Pieter (1876), Peter (1885) and Hendrik Van Paridon (1887) opened a workshop in Rozenstraat in the Jordaan. The brothers worked together with sculptors such as Jan Verdonk from Den Bosch, who designed sculptures in the Toorop style. Many classical sculptures were made, often after antique models. After 1920 the Paridons mainly produced Christian religious statues and stopped with classical and modern art. This figurine was therefore produced before 1920.
The plaster is still intact. Here and there the paintwork has sustained some damage over time.
