SILVER CABINET FIGURE OF A KNIGHT. J. KURZ & CO. GERMANY, HANAU, TURN OF THE 19TH - 20TH CENTURIES

SILVER CABINET FIGURE OF A KNIGHT. J. KURZ & CO. GERMANY, HANAU, TURN OF THE 19TH - 20TH CENTURIES

A sculptural figure of a knight in full armour, executed in silver in the tradition of early twentieth century Historicism. The composition depicts a standing knight of the late Medieval period, clad in richly decorated plate armour engraved with ornamental motifs. In his right hand the figure holds a long sword, while the left hand supports a shield with a relief representation of a knight. The pose is solemn and static, emphasizing the monumental character of the composition and its decorative function.The surface of the armour is carefully worked and enriched with elaborate vegetal ornament executed in engraving and repoussé techniques. The breastplate, belt and protective elements of the armour are decorated with complex ornamental patterns creating a textured metallic surface. The helmet is crowned with a decorative plume, while selected details of the armour are highlighted with partial gilding.Particular expressiveness is achieved through the face carved in ivory, creating a striking contrast with the cool sheen of the silver armour. The figure stands on a substantial architectural base decorated with relief panels depicting historical scenes and small sculptural figures at the corners. The pedestal features a complex composition with oval medallions and ornamental friezes executed in repoussé.The stylistic language of the sculpture draws inspiration from the European sculptural tradition of the Renaissance and the late Medieval period. Works of this type represent a characteristic example of decorative silver produced by the workshops of Hanau, renowned for their mastery in historicist sculpture and objects of high artistic quality.Marks: German national silver mark with crescent and crown; fineness mark “800”; maker’s mark “JK” with a swan, workshop of J. Kurz & Co., Hanau.Dimensions: Height 43.2 cm.Weight: 1778 g.Condition: Good. Silver with natural patina of age. Minor traces of use. Partial gilding preserved.Provenance: Private collection, Hesse.
