Ferdinand Preiss

This is one our favorie pieces here in our art gallery. The artist is Ferdinand Preiss. This piece is called "Lighter than Air". Being able to photo any piece by Preiss is always a treat. Her face is 100 times more beautiful in person. It is a cold- painted bronze and carved and tinted icroy on onyx and marble base, edited by PK, Berlin, model no 1157, 35.5cm, the model was Ada May who appeared in one of CB Cochran's Revues.

Lighter than Air is in referenced on page 179 in what we call one of the Art Deco bibles "Art Deco Sculpture" by Victor Arwas

We have many Preiss sculptures here in our gallery.
