About the Item
Excellent ceramic figurine with rare decotation of the 1930s:
The sculpture depicts a dancer in a butterfly costume. Standing with her arms raised and her head tilted to one side, she performs a slight twisting movement. The translucent costume and the fabric falling from the sleeves are reminiscent of butterfly wings, decorated in shades of midnight blue, black and pink.
On a black, slightly domed and stepped round base, signature 'Lorenzl' on the left wing tip at the bottom rear.
Designed by Josef LORENZL (1892 - 1950), who was an Austrian sculptor and ceramic modeler. His bronze statuettes often show graceful dancers with long legs and closed eyes. Lorenzl designed numerous ceramics for Friedrich Goldscheider and Keramos and was one of the most popular artists of Art Deco.
Model 5900 was created circa 1929 and made circa 1930/35

Josef Lorenzl
Josef Lorenzl was born in Vienna on 1st September 1892. He started out working at the Vienna Arsenal in the foundry, where he learned the techniques of bronze casting. Working from a studio in the company’s grounds, he was able to produce many bronze and chryselephantine sculptures. Lorenzl was captivated by the female form he became well known for his shapely dancing girls with long, elegant legs and closed eyes. Lorenzl also was a gifted ceramicist, producing pieces for Goldscheider.
