Lorenzl Seated Girl – When looking to the designs of the Art Deco period one talented sculptor and ceramist that cannot be ignored is Josef Lorezl. A master designer, his bronze statuettes and ceramic figural work epitomise the era perfectly. As with Preis, Chiparus and Colinet the other great sculptors from this period, Lorenzl was inspired by the female form and the new found freedom that women enjoyed, which he executed beautifully both in his bronze and ceramic designs.
