Alle Auktionen / Möbel, Design und Spiegel / Naar Rene Paul Chambellan 'Manhattan Goddess Dancing in the Winds
This auction features a pair of high-quality, scaled-down artistic interpretations of the iconic façade relief that once adorned the Bonwit Teller building on Fifth Avenue in New York. The original artworks, titled 'Manhattan Goddess Dancing in the Winds', stood 4.5 meters tall and were crafted from limestone. In 1929 these façade figures were designed by the renowned American sculptor Rene Paul Chambellan (1893–1955), a key figure within the Art Deco movement. The original reliefs, two stylized female figures with fluttering scarves, were located between the eighth and ninth floors of the building. The existence of the artworks, however, was short-lived. On June 5, 1980, Donald J. Trump, then a real estate developer and today the President of the United States, ordered the removal and demolition of the façade figures to make way for the construction of Trump Tower. The destruction sparked a storm of criticism and made the front page of The New York Times. What had once been regarded as a symbol of refined art disappeared from New York City's skyline forever. The objects offered in this auction have been designed and crafted with great care by Atelier Laurier Design. Based on all available photographs and historical sources, this highly detailed reconstruction has been realized. Each component is meticulously developed to capture the elegance of the original façade figures. Both pieces are in excellent condition and are being carefully packaged for shipment, including insurance against loss or damage during transport. Dimensions per piece: 46 x 30 x 3 cm Material: porcelain plaster with terracotta pigments Weight per piece: 4 kg (total weight for the set: 8 kg)
