S R Thomas Antiques and Interiors

Description

This particular work of Lorenzl depicts a fashionable maiden of the period, on an onyx base, signed Lorenzl, Austria. The bronze measures 3 in – 7.5 cm square with a height of 9 ¼ in – 23.5 cm.
Lorenzl was born on 1 September 1882 in Vienna, Austria and died there on 15 August 1950. Lorenzl started his career working at a foundry at the Vienna Arsenal where he learned the techniques of bronze casting. The Vienna Arsenal was a military storage complex located in the south-eastern part of Vienna. While at the Vienna Arsenal, Lorenzl produced many bronze and chryselephantine sculptures, the latter using both bronze and ivory, and captivated by the female form he became famed for his shapely dancing girls with long, elegant legs and closed eyes. Lorenzl's talents also extended to being a gifted ceramicist. He produced pieces for Goldscheider, working from a studio on company grounds. As with his chryselephantine pieces, his ceramic works were in great demand and became the embodiment of the Art Déco period.
