About the Item

This plaster sculpture, Tanzende Mänade, is a museum reproduction created around 1930 after the antique original in the Antikensammlung of the Kunsthalle zu Kiel. Capturing the dramatic energy of a dancing maenad, the figure is shown in a dynamic backward arc, her head tilted upward and her drapery flowing with expressive movement. The sculptural surface is richly textured, giving the piece an authentic archaeological presence and emphasizing the vitality of the classical form. Elevated on a dark circular base, the work exudes both elegance and emotional tension, characteristic of ancient Dionysian imagery. As a 20th-century plaster cast, it reflects the period’s dedication to art historical study and museum-quality craftsmanship. A striking object for interiors, it offers timeless sculptural beauty and a powerful connection to classical antiquity. A unique piece which is a great eye-catcher for your antique, modern, space age or mid-century interior. If you have any more questions we are very happy to help and send you more details, photos, videos, a shipping quote or information. All pieces are looked after in our own restoration workshop. We also can do new upholstery cover or other special requests. Please ask.
