Bronze art ?
« on: July 25, 2020, 02:24:19 am »
Long time member off my collection this small bronze . Height 5 cm and width 7 cm and heavy in weight . Never found any information about it . If you look close you see some parts are hard soldered to eight other . And to me it look like a statue folded to this shape . But is it art and ? And looks like a older piece with this patine . So any idea's about it ?

“HA”, ….. looks to me like it may have begun “life” in a bucket of water where “leftover” melted bronze was being poured …… after the mold(s) had been filled up.

A safe way to dispose of the excess until a “new” pour is done. 8)

Think a maybe posted it also here a some time ago ? But the thing with bronze is that if you look at the points where its been put together some handmade welds are made . And it looks like a folded person statue if you look at it from all corners and imagine the shapes pulled out  . Maybe a pencil and some paper and try to unfolded in the mind and put it on paper will be the best thing to do ?
