EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite details of the "Buchbaumstatuette" created by Richard Joseph Luksch in 1914. Carved from a combination of hard woods and fruit woods, this sculpture stands at an impressive height of 56 cm. The artist's monogram and date are beautifully inlaid with silver, turquoise, silver wire, and copper wire. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate craftsmanship involved in creating this piece. With its hand delicately placed on its head, the figurine exudes a sense of contemplation and introspection. The portrait-style composition focuses on the quarter-length view of the statuette's head and shoulders. The decorative technique used here is truly remarkable; it combines elements of art nouveau with traditional Austrian craftsmanship. The wooden background provides a stark contrast against which the metalwork shines brilliantly. This early twentieth-century artwork represents not only a stunning example of European art but also serves as a testament to personal hygiene practices during that era. Its human-like features make it alluringly lifelike while maintaining an air of elegance and sophistication. Displayed against a white background, this bust-length representation captures attention effortlessly. It is no wonder why this Buchbaumstatuette holds such value within private collections worldwide.
