Harry Bertoia

Hokin Gallery, Bay Harbor Islands, FL
Acquired from the above by the present owner

Overall very good condition. This sculpture retains a rich patina, showing gentle rubbing, minor occasional discolorations and light surface soiling. This is a rare early by Bertoia which is sold with a drawing of the form by the artist. An expressive sculpture when viewed in person. Please note the length, as this is a large table top sculpture.
