Bidspirit auction | A BRONZE FIGURE OF A


A BRONZE FIGURE OF A RECUMBENT CAT, SIGNED ”C. HOTZ”, 20TH CENTURY - Cast bronze sculpture modeled as a stylized recumbent cat, rendered in a compact, abstracted form with smoothly rounded volumes and minimal anatomical detail. The composition emphasizes mass and contour rather than naturalistic description, with the body curled inward and the head tucked against the torso, creating a unified, organic silhouette. The surface is finished with a dark brown patina showing subtle tonal variations and handling marks consistent with sculptural modeling and casting. The underside is incised with the artist’s signature ”C. Hotz”. Mounted on a rectangular white display base. The work reflects modernist sculptural tendencies of the mid to late 20th century, combining animal subject matter with abstraction and restraint. Please make all inquiries before bidding.
