William Wauer
1866 - 1962
Tänzerin. Wohl 1928er Jahre.
Bronze with a black-brown patina.
Signed on the plinth. 44 x 30 cm (17.3 x 11,8 in).
[AR].
• A virtuosic balancing act: a masterful display of balance, dynamism, and artistic precision.
• Wonderful, lively, flowing movement in cubic forms.
• Previously unknown sculpture by the avant-garde artist and film director.
• Offered on the international auction market for the first time.
PROVENANCE: Private collection, Baden-Württemberg (probably in the family since the 1920s–1930s).
In good condition. Overall, there are minor scuffs and scratches, small areas where the patina is missing, traces of paint and small spots, and it is very lightly dusty in places. There are narrow, linear indentations at the junction between the arms and the body, likely caused during production.
