Julius Paul Schmidt-Felling - The Archer, Bronze Sculpture, Germany, Berlin 1900
About the Item
The Archer - Antique bronze sculpture by Julius Paul Schmidt-Felling
Dimensions: H x W x D: 32 x 10 x 12 cm
Description:
Bronze figure mounted on a cuboid base made of serpentine stone.
On a naturalistic background we see a young man dressed only in a loincloth preparing his longbow for the competition. Concentrating on what he is doing, the young athlete has his gaze directed downwards to his hands and is about to tighten the bowstring.
We can almost imagine how he will lift the heavy longbow and take aim in the next moment. Standing in a lunge, his body is already slightly tense; in this preparatory situation, the muscles of the legs in particular are clearly defined. As observers of the scene, we eagerly wait for the athlete to draw the bow and tense his upper body muscles.
The signature of the artist Schmidt-Felling can be found on the naturalistic background.
Julius Paul Schmidt-Felling was born in 1835 in Berlin, in what was then the Kingdom of Prussia, and died in 1920.
The sculptor's works primarily depict nudes, athletes, mythological warriors, workers and children at play.
Many of his works were realized by the Berlin art foundry Gladenbeck, others by the small foundry Robert Kionsek.
In fine condition with a small chip to the marble base. (Clearly visible in the photos)
