About the Item
Rare, Large Scale Male Nude Bronze Archer
The Archer is Geyger’s most celebrated work. The Gladenbeck foundry acquired the rights to cast reductions in bronze and edited them in three sizes, with one such model appearing on the front of their 1903 catalogue. While Geyger's inspiration ultimately derives from antiquity and more specifically from an ancient torso of a wrestler in Berlin, his particular achievement lies in the fresh and modern reinterpretation of the Ideal, harnessing a stylised male physique in a composition full of the undiluted energy in the split second before the release of the archer’s arrow.

- The Artwork:
This sculpture by Jean de Roncourt embodies a striking dramatic tension through the figure of an archer in full action. Kneeling, with a taut torso and prominent muscles, the man draws his bow in a gesture of controlled power. The dynamic, almost choreographic posture reveals a perfect knowledge of human anatomy, typical of the Art Deco movement to which de Roncourt belonged. The grey-patinated spelter confers an antique nobility...
