Description from the seller

BRONZE from VIENNA - FRANZ XAVIER BERGMANN - Nude woman riding a satyr - Marked with a stamp - RARE
Superb sculpture depicting a nude woman riding a satyr in a very explicit position...
In two separate pieces
Austrian School (19th-20th centuries) (presence of the original stamp from FRANZ XAVIER BERGMANN on the 2 pieces)
Artist: Franz Xavier Bergmann
Seal: stamp on the Cruche marked with the letter B.
Period: 19th century

Condition: very good condition, all details, with both characters clearly visible, some areas painted in red before firing! TB++
The artist Franz Xavier Bergmann (1861/1936) leaves behind a very distinctive body of work, originating from the Art Nouveau repertoire. A talented founder, he created numerous works that are highly sought after at auction. Today, the prices of his works are soaring at auction houses. These pieces are especially prized, particularly by French and European buyers. The prices at which they sell on the art market speak volumes about his reputation...
Like the vast majority of Viennese bronzes, this piece is carefully crafted in beautiful hand-painted bronze.
Dimensions: 11 x 7 x 3.5 cm (femme) & 11 x 6.5 x 3.5 cm (satyre)
Weight: 460 g
circa: 1910
Origin: from a collection sale (sale of erotic bronzes from Vienna by Monsieur X...)
