“Victory” Sculpture Edition 5/30 by Scott Gentry
-
Description
"Victory #5 of 30" is crafted from white bronze with a satin finish and placed atop a black marble base.
Scott's "Victory" bronze series was originally inspired during his travels to Paris years ago while wondering the halls of the Louvre Museum. It was during this trip that he came across the "Winged Victory" sculpture of Nike and was admiring its beauty, grace, and power. Nike was the goddess of victory in Greek mythology and is depicted as having wings, hence her alternative name "Winged Goddess". Scott was so inspired he began designing his own depiction of Nike and the "Victory" bronze series was born!
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Scott Gentry is a stone and bronze sculptor currently based in the United States. At an early age, Scott discovered stone sculpting and soon traveled to Pietrasanta, Italy, to learn more about this ancient form of art. While in Italy, he was able to study in the same setting as many renowned sculptors had before him and experience La Dolce Vita.
As he learned about the varieties of stone available and how each would carve differently from the next, a passion for the art quickly ensued and has since led to a lifelong passion for creating sculpture. Scott's continuous search for knowledge has also taken him to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, and Ventura, California. It was in San Miguel de Allende, Scott discovered the process of bronze wax casting and expanded into creating bronze sculptures. He returns to Pietrasanta as often as possible to work in the studio and gain inspiration from the Italian countryside, the marble laden Apuan Alps and nearby Ligurian Sea.
Scott’s clientele has grown over the years to include celebrities in Los Angeles/Beverly Hills, California, as well as private collectors throughout the United States and Australia. He continues to create gorgeous works of art in stone and bronze and hopes to share his passion and creativity across the globe. -
