About the Item
Eccomi II Bronze Sculpture Lady Woman Sitting Portrait Contemporary
KOBE, pseudonym of Jacques Saelens, was a Belgian artist (Kortrijk, Belgium 1950 – Saint-Julien (Var), France 2014).
He combined the broad with sophistication. Two themes dominated his artworks: the female figures, in all its mystery and simplicity, not as those we know from fashion magazines and movies. His other favourite theme is the horse. Not only because it is a symbol of connection, companionship, and strength.
We also owe a lot to the horse. Its history runs parallel with that of man (in labour and in battle, in sporting entertainment, in defeats and victories).
Kobe developed his artistic vision by travelling around the world. Kobe has always been fascinated by the ancient cultures in Central America, South America, Africa and Asia. All his sculptures are therefore preceded by a long journey of passion, awareness, and study.
Kobe created his own style of sculptures that are instantly recognizable. Kobe was in constant search of beauty, simplicity, and purity. He did not inject his art with hidden meanings. His works of art brought feelings to life for the world to enjoy: love, happiness, friendship, and affection.
Since 1995, Kobe has lived and worked in Pietrasanta (Italy), the famous and historic international centre for marble and bronze artists, close to the bronze foundries and close to the Carrara marble quarries.

- The Gathering of Graces, Quarter LifeBy Richard MacDonaldLocated in Laguna Beach, CAGreek mythology records the Three Graces, considered the fairest daughters of Zeus and Eurynome, as representatives of the blessings of nature. Followers believed that each spring, their fertility dance caused seeds to sprout and flowers to bloom. On another creative level, the young goddesses were believed to influence artistic achievement. While Boticelli’s expression of the soft, linear forms inherent in the Three Graces influenced the rebirth of classical mythology, Richard MacDonald is inspired to foster the renaissance of figurative art with his own interpretation of “grace.” Employing the classical tradition of undulating lines, precise contour and soft, fair forms, MacDonald created first his masterpiece “The Three Graces” followed by an exploration into the personae of each of the three sisters, Agalia, Euphrosyne and Thalia. In "The Gathering of the Graces...Category
