About the Item
Large and impressive, carved in a naive-sophisticated way that suggests folk art as well as WPA sculptures which glorified the worker, this large bas relief depicts a shirtless young man carrying a large basket overflowing with grapes, apples, pears and walnuts. The ripe bounty suggested by the fruit, and the large foliage at his feet, give the feeling of a 1940s supper club featuring a big band and floor show. The sculpture is carved in mahogany.

"Satyr Carrying Grapes, " Gold Glazed Wall Sculpture by Rookwood, 1915
By Rookwood Pottery Co.
Located in Philadelphia, PA
One of the rarest and must unusual pieces ever created by the famed Rookwood Pottery Company in Cincinnati, this sculpture of a satyr bearing the weight of a basket of grapes was created in 1915. Gorgeously glazed in a gold hue with a greenish cast, the sculpture is highly three-dimensional, and raking light creates wonderful shadows and contrasts. This piece served originally as a large wall pocket; the interior is glazed in a creamy hue. Rookwood was, arguably, the most important and prolific fine art...
