AN IMPRESSIVE PAIR OF ENGLISH CARVED MARBLE LIONS AFTER JOSEF GOTT
-
Description
The description portrays an impressive pair of life-size 19th-century English Baroque style carved white marble sitting lions, with each lion depicted resting its front paws on a carved shield.
The lions, crafted in the Baroque style, exude a sense of grandeur and majesty often associated with this ornate artistic movement. The choice of white marble for their creation adds to their regal appearance and emphasizes the intricate details of the carving.
Signed by J. Gott, the lions are attributed to Josef Gott, suggesting that these sculptures were crafted after the style or under the influence of the renowned artist Josef Gott. Such attributions often indicate homage or emulation of a master's work, showcasing skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail.
The posture of the lions, seated and with their paws resting on shields, symbolizes strength, protection, and power, characteristics commonly associated with these majestic creatures.
Overall, these life-size Baroque-style carved white marble lions, signed by J. Gott after Josef Gott, are not only a testament to skilled artistry but also stand as impressive and symbolic decorative pieces, evoking a sense of regality and strength.
