Description
Offered is a striking Mid-Century brutalist torch cut brass angelfish form wall sculpture, circa 1950s - 1960s. It is very much in the style of renowned metal sculptors Curtis Jere, Paul Evans, Marc Weinstein, and Henrik Horst. This artisan-crafted sculpture is designed with individually cut pieces attached to metal rods and mounted on a metal frame. The frame has a cut out hoop attached for easy wall mounting. It has been cleaned but not brightened as the age-appropriate patina adds to the charm and nautical or coastal theme - see detailed images. .
