gorgeous art deco statue of a hunter with spear on a beautiful black marble base white metal, with a splendid bronze patina ! ca 1930 signed Jean de Roncourt probably a pseudonym of DM Chiparus There is a bit of controversy and mystery surrounding De Roncourt’s work. Biographical information seems lacking, and the fact that not only this sculpture but that of his most famous work, can sometimes be found signed with the name D. Chiparus has led many to believe that De Roncourt may have been a pseudonym for the amazingly prolific artist Demetre Chiparus.
VERY BIG ONE : marble 75 cm x 18 cm x 6 cm height 55 cm statue of the hunter 90 cm !! very good condition small signs of use and age
