Large bronze statue featuring a hindu bird-catcher by the belgian sculptor and medallist auguste de wever. He wears a ribbon and a drapery supporting a small sword. His necklace is adorned with an elephant-shaped medallion. Our bird-catcher testifies to the taste of the time for the exoticism and the fascination for the countries of the east and far east. Antique edition cast in darkened patinated bronze. Signed de wever on plinth and titled l'oiseleur indou (hindu bird-catcher). Circa 1900 dimensions: w 13.8 in - d 11.8in - h 34.3in. Dimensions: l 35cm, p 30cm, h 87cm. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution less
