Four Art Deco Bas-reliefs - Hermann Feuerhahn - Plaster

Four Art Deco wall bas-reliefs with musical tempo markings.
First half of the 20th century, painted plaster with a gilt bronze finish.
Attributed to Hermann Feuerhahn (1873–1955).

A set of four plaster bas-reliefs, combining classical elegance with the modernity of Art Deco. Each relief panel depicts nude figures, men and women, in dynamic and varied poses: passionate embraces, virile struggles, physical exchanges, or horseback rides. The composition expresses sensuality, movement, and formal harmony, the hallmarks of Feuerhahn's aesthetic.

Beneath each scene, a musical term—Allegro, Largo, Andante, Scherzando—inscribed in relief, establishes a subtle dialogue between musical rhythm and sculptural gesture, transforming these bas-reliefs into visual and poetic scores.

These pieces were likely designed as architectural decorative elements, examples of Art Deco applied to wall ornamentation.
