"Nude of a Woman" bronze, by Antonio Zucconi, 1959. Signed and dated at the bottom of the front. Antonio Zucconi (Macerata, 1894 - Turin, 1967) was a pupil of Edoardo Rubino at the Accademia Albertina in Turin. From the beginning of the 1920s he exhibited at the group shows of the Promotrice in Turin with works of Symbolist inspiration. From the 1930s onwards, his sculptures took on a more 'twentieth-century' tone, as a result of many influences, in particular Arturo Martini and Ernesto De Fiori. The vision of Vincenzo Gemito's sculptures at the Venice Biennale in 1932 was more decisive for the development of his work. Present at the Venice Biennials of 1934 and 1936, he exhibited with Piedmontese artists at the Rome Gallery in 1938. In 1932, in collaboration with the architect Nicola Mosso and the sculptors Pavesi and Terracini, he created the Mysteries of Joy for the Sanctuary of Oropa. In the second half of the 1930s he again devoted himself to decorative sculpture in the Unione Industriali building in Biella. Period: 1959 Measurements: H 61 x W 18 x D 25 cm -

Late Ayutthaya gilt bronze Buddha, produced in Siam around 1780. With authentication from the Oriental Art Department, Antique Silver (18a Northampton square, London, E.C. 1). The kingdom of Ayutthaya was a state in Siam, present-day Thailand, which existed between 1351 and 1767. It took its name from its capital, Ayutthaya. The Buddha rests on a multi-layered base, and is represented in the "bhumisparsamudra" position, his right hand resting on his knee with the palm downwards and with the tips of the fingers touching the ground in such a way as to symbolise contact with the divinity of the earth, while the left hand is resting on his lap. With this gesture (mudrā) he demonstrated the attainment of enlightenment. On the top of his head Bhudda has a flame-shaped protuberance, called "uṣṇīṣa", which represents the radiance of spiritual energy. Period: circa 1780 Measurements: H 39.5 x W 32.5 x D 22 cm -
