Naar de Franse kunstenaar Georges Lavroff (1895–1991) - Sculpture, Tigre à l'affût" of "Tigre prêt à bondir" - 38 cm - Marble

Art Deco sculpture of a prowling panther or tiger (such as "Tigre à l'affût" or "Tigre prêt à bondir"), often attributed to the Russo-French artist Georges Lavroff (1895–1991). The artist was born in Russia in 1895 and lived and worked in France.

This type of heavy, massive sculpture on an inclined (pyramidal) pedestal of high-quality black marble (often Belgian black marble) is characteristic of the French Art Deco period (circa 1925–1930).

The Material: The weight of 7.75 kg for a width of only 38 cm proves that the panther itself is solid cast. For original French Art Deco statues in this class, they are typically silvered or chromium-plated bronze.
The tip of the tail is broken off. (see the photo).
