Gorgeous art deco statue of a hunter with spear on a beautiful black/ green marble base bronze patinated white metal / spelter ( = zamak ) ca 1930 design of J. de Roncourt, but no signature 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.
marble 54 cm x 20 cm height 40 cm ( with spear ) statue of the hunter 54cm very good condition small signs of use and age/ some spots
