Unique sculpture by Georg Thylstrup

Height 33 cm. Width 28 cm. Unique sculpture by Georg Thylstrup from the 1920s. The figure depicts naked woman held captive by a dragon. The woman's legs have a tail so she can be a mermaid. The figure is made of polished clay where the woman has black painted hair. The figure is in very nice condition. The dragon's tail has a little yellow on it and this one seems to be attached. This can also be done from the factory. Georg Thylstrup has i.a. worked with Georg Jensen, Mogens Ballin, together with Patrick Nordstrøm at Royal Copenhagen and at Ipsens Enke. He has exhibited at a number of world exhibitions and has exhibited in i.a. Stockholm and Helsinki, at the British Museum, the Kaiser Friedrich Museum in Berlin, the Metropolitan Museum in New York and in the Musée national de la céramique in Sévres. Item number: 9045
