Art Deco Dancer Sculpture in Copper by Henri Lautier Cast by Robert Thew

About the Item

This listing is for a Classic and striking Art Deco copper sculpture depicting a dancing nude by Henri Lautier who was a French Sculpture. The sculpture stands at approx 12.25 inches tall, 6" wide, and 6" deep. The figure is mounted on a round copper base. The underside of the base is marked with the year 1928 and the initials of the foundry G. Thew, for Robert Garrett Thew. The condition of the piece is very nice, with no damage, and a great patina on the copper which only age will produce. Robert Garrett Thew (1892-1964) was born in Sharon, CT and studied at Syracuse University under Edward Penfield (1866-1925), Walter Biggs (1886-1968), and John F. Carlson (1875-1947). He was commissioned by the WPA in the 1930s to provide works of art for several buildings in Westport, CT. Works are held by the Newark Museum. He specialized in bronze sculpture, lamp bases, signs, and weathervanes. Toward the end of his life he returned to landscape painting.
