Description
Item Description: Georg Wrba (German 1872 - 1939) Bronze Sculpture, Mother with children; a seated nude, partially draped woman holding an infant, flanked by two children holding a K and V. Possible that the base was intended to be used as a seal.
Wrba worked in Berlin, where he created sculptures for buildings for the architects Ludwig Hoffmann and Alfred Messel.
Moved to Dresden, where from 1907 to 1930 he taught at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts. He brought the Dresden school of sculpture into contact with the reforming ideas of the Deutscher Werkbund and was a founding member of the Dresden Artists' Association, known as in.Die Zunftin. (in.The Guildin.). The basic aim of the in.Werkbundin., and also of in.Die Zunftin., was to achieve a collaboration between and integration of various forms of art, rejecting ornamentation for its own sake: painting and sculpture were to form integral parts of architecture. - Wikipedia
Approx. Measurements: 6in. height, 1.5in. diameter at base
Condition: As found patina, some surface marks at the base.
Domestic Shipping: $30
