Jan and Joel Martel
Jan & Joel Martel Art Deco Cubist Bronze Angel Monumental 2 of 8

1925

About the Item

Original bronze by Jan and Joel Martel. Image of a stylized cubist Angel playing a harp.. Rare and famous figurative bronze made by Susse Frères foundry was cast posthumously from the original with the family's permission in 2002. Signed: "JJ MARTEL" The Martel brothers were amazing Art Deco artists with an unusual and exciting working relationship as brothers (read bio below). They could synthesize cubist, realism, and Classic interpretations as sculptors, painters, and fabricators. Signed by J. Martel in bronze, this is an excellent and rare piece in original condition. Martels did serious work depicting music with central installations on permanent exhibitions in France. In 1932, it was initially conceived to be a part of the figural decoration of the church's baptismal font in Charbogne, France. For the past 15 years, I've been a 1stDibs Furniture dealer with Platinum status.
