J. B. - Franz Iffland (1862-1935) - Statue

Girl on a Chair – Bronze, signed “F. Iffland Paris” – 22.2 cm An expressive bronze sculpture of a cheerful girl on a high chair. The lively stance with legs extended, raised hand, and head tilted to the side gives the depiction a playful character. Lovingly worked-out details such as the large hair bow, the facial features, and the folds of the dress complete the composition. The surface features a dark brown patina with lighter, bronze-colored accents on protruding areas. Signature and markings: Under the seat surface is the recessed signature “F. Iffland Paris,” pointing to the sculptor Franz Iffland (1862–1935). Next to it is a round brand plaque bearing the inscription “BRONZE GARANTI PARIS – J.B. DEPOSE.” On the rear of the seat frame is the marking “A 1811,” presumably a model or casting number. Dimensions and weight: Height: 22.2 cm Maximum width: 12.6 cm Maximum depth: 11.5 cm Weight: 1,407 g Material: Bronze, patinated Brand: J. B. (marked) Condition: Used condition with superficial signs of wear and localized patina wear. In raised areas as well as on the base areas of the chair legs, the lighter metal tone shows through.
