It is offered in the style of Hagenauer Werkstätte; no maker's mark is visible in the photographs provided, so this is a style comparison rather than an attribution. Reducing a figure to a few continuous flowing lines like this is a harder sculptural problem than it looks — every curve has to read as anatomically plausible and gesturally correct from multiple angles with no surface detail to fall back on, which is why this reductive style became a hallmark of a particular strand of interwar Viennese design rather than a shortcut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition is very good. The sculpture has clearly been well kept, and now moves forward to a new setting. Suited to a mantel, a bookshelf, or a console table, where its silhouette can be appreciated from more than one angle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piece weighs approximately 1.8 kg, giving real substance to what reads as a light, linear form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDETAILS\u003cbr\u003e\nSize: approximately 31 cm high, base approximately 15 cm wide (12.2 x 5.9 in) — roughly the height of a standard wine bottle\u003cbr\u003e\nWeight: approximately 1.8 kg (4 lb)\u003cbr\u003e\nMaterial: patinated cast metal on a wood base\u003cbr\u003e\nStyle-Period: in the style of Hagenauer Werkstätte\u003cbr\u003e\nShipping: professionally packed, fully insured, worldwide — we handle the paperwork, with all import duties paid by us; nothing to settle on delivery\u003cbr\u003e\nCondition: very good\u003cbr\u003e\nReturns: accepted within 30 days\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Jaspers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59683420635481,"sku":"LM-V-232","price":490.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1063\/5388\/5529\/files\/il_fullxfull.8620266057_7jpn.jpg?v=1791037342","url":"https:\/\/maisonjaspers.com\/products\/patinated-metal-sculpture-of-a-harpist-34530","provider":"Maison Jaspers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
