Heroes of the Song of the Nibelungs, Cast Iron Statues, probably German

Located in Greding, DE

Two almost life-size cast iron statues with great depth of detail and bronze-colored patina. Dimensions left: 153 x 60 x 40 cm Dimensions right: 154 x 50 x 40 cm The statues most likely depict central heroes of the Nibelung saga. The statue on the left is depicted with a bear on its helmet, which means it is probably Dietrich von Bern. This suggests that the hero on the right is Hagen, whose helmet is crowned with a swan. In the Song of the Nibelungs, Dietrich of Bern battles Hagen of Tronje and Volker of Alzey and defeats them both. Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld's (1794-1872) interpretations of the Song of the Nibelungs in the frescoes of the Munich Residence combine the two characters from the literary source with this variant depiction as German knights...

Pair of Antique Terracotta Statues, Paris, circa 1880

By Gossin Frères Manufactory

Located in Dallas, TX

This charming pair of French terracotta statues depicts a male and female musician and was made during the latter half of the 1800s. Both statues have been stamped “GOSSIN PARIS” on the back sides. The Gossin factory in Paris was led by two brothers, Etienne (died in 1900) and Louis (1846-1928). The brothers regularly showed their wares at the official art exhibition of the Académie des Beaux-Arts, the Salon de Paris, where they would often bring home medals for outstanding quality works. They were very well known for their ornamental terra cotta fabrications which were exhibited all-over the country, where they also took home various medals. Both of these statues represent musicians siting upon rocky bases decorated with flowers, and our male musician has been depicted holding a “musette de cour”, which is a relative of the bagpipe. The female musician can be seen with a “vielle à roue” in her lap. A vielle à roue is a string instrument that produces sound when a crank is turned. The crank rotates a wheel that rubs against the strings. The sound can be compared to that of a violin. Place this elegant pair of 19th century terracotta musician statues...
