Nubian Painted Wooden Torch Holder – Mid 20th Century
This mid-20th century painted wooden Nubian torch holder is a remarkable piece of art. He holds a cornucopia above his head, from which springs a five-light torch decorated with brass acanthus leaves. The cornucopia symbolises prosperity and wealth, while the five-light torch represents light and knowledge. The acanthus leaves add a touch of classical refinement. The figure is perched on a scrolled tripod pedestal, adding a dimension of stability and elegance to the ensemble. This work reflects the artistic trends of the mid-20th century, when decorative and functional art were in vogue. Sculptures of this type were often used as decorative elements in luxurious interiors, bringing a touch of exoticism and sophistication. In short, this painted wooden Nubian is a fascinating testimony to mid-20th century art and culture, combining beauty, symbolism and utility. ******** Period: Mid-20th century Excellent condition.
