With three pillars under as is shade, electrified. Oscar Bruno Bach (German/American, 1884-1957) German born craftsman Oscar Bruno Bach was one of the most technically skilled and commercially successful figures in the field of decorative metalwork during the first half of the 20th century. His design and production ranged from small utilitarian designs for the home to grand-scale architectural elements. His style was as diverse as his use of metals and included Arts & Crafts, Gothic and Tudor Revival, Spanish Baroque, French Directoire, English Chippendale, and American Art Deco. Thematically he was particularly fond of the zodiac, of lush scrolling grapevines, classical masks, mythological symbols and elements of the Italianate and Germanic grotesque. Oscar Bach's work can be found in the permanent collections of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Minneapolis Museum of Art, The Wolfsonian, and Reynolda House. During his lifetime, Bach was interviewed and featured in numerous magazine articles and trade publications, and was most notably celebrated by renowned art critic and author, Matlack Price, in a publication entitled, "Design & Craftsmanship in Metals: The Creative Art of Oscar Bach." Metal artisan and innovator Oscar Bruno Bach died on May 4th, 1957 at the age of 72. Size: 10 1/2 x 9 1/2 x 33 1/2 in. Please note that all sales are final.
