A Mid-20th Century Signed John DeMott Brass Sailboat Sculpture - A Mid-20th Century Signed John DeMott Brass Sailboat Sculpture. This modern sculptural depiction of a sailboat is crafted from sheet metal, identified as brass, and exhibits intentional heat patination that creates a gradient from golden hues to darker bronze along the edges of the sails and hull. The boat features a single mast and rigging made of thinner metal rods. It is mounted on a molded resin or composite base, textured and painted to represent a rocky, wave-tossed sea with simulated wooden pilings. A stylized signature or artist's monogram, resembling an 'A' or 'H' with a prominent diagonal slash, is visible on one of the sails. Height: 18 cm
