HIGHLY DESIRABLE CRUSHED MARBLE SCULPTURE
“THE SAINT”
UP FOR AUCTION FROM THE BICCARD COLLECTION
FROM THE SOUTH AFRICAN ARTIST AND VISIONARY, JOHN BICCARD, IS YOUR CHANCE TO OWN A UNIQUE HANDMADE WORK OF ART WITH A WHIMSICAL TOUCH.
EACH SCULPTURE IS HAND FINISHED WITH HIS INITIALS ENGRAVED ON IT (SEE 2nd PHOTO). PRODUCTION OF THESE SCULPTURES CEASED IN 1999, MAKING THESE SCULPTURES VERY COLLECTIBLE.
CONDITION: EXCELLENT
(The Saint is named “Peace” and is depicted to be the opposite of the Napoleon mini figurine named "War." As you can see, Saint has the look of tranquility. Dressed in a checker board cape with varied patterns. Saint’s robe shows earths bounty with grapes, bananas, pineapples and apples. The inside brim of the hat shows bunches of grapes. Four doves adorn the outside of his hat. Two dove’s holding an olive branch - a symbol of peace and harmony. The other two doves I assume symbolize love. This man is holding his belly. Which could very well be representational of mother earth. Or he is full with natures gifts. Which ever way you look at him, he is blessed)
