Description from the seller
Authentic decorative sculpture from the Art Deco era (circa 1930/1940) designed by the famous Danish sculptor Johannes Hansen (1903-1995).
The work depicts a young naked boy sitting astride a fantastical fish or mythical dolphin. This emblematic model of early 20th-century Scandinavian design bears witness to the artist's exploration of maritime bestiary and mythological figures.

Nice period-used condition, the piece has preserved all its authentic charm. The original brown patina shows normal signs of wear and rubbing, revealing the grey metal beneath the base, which testifies to its age and the manufacturing method.
