Lot 670 | Edgar Augustin (Recklinghausen 1936 - Hamburg 1996). A Seated Female Nude.
1970s. Bronze, black patinated. H. 95 cm, l. 75 cm, w. 59 cm. Signed on the back. EAugustin, foundry mark SCHMÄKE DÜSSELDORF. From 1973 onwards, Augustin turned his attention back to the nude figure and for a time he created realistic depictions of sitting, squatting, crouching and standing figures in various materials. A female nude is depicted here, sitting on a bench in a relaxed posture. Her hair is knotted into a bun, her hands rest at her sides on the bench and her feet are stretched out parallel to the front. The deliberate unevenness in the surface of the bronze sculpture lends the calmly seated figure a lively character - the figure depicted can be seen in a studio scene that Augustin executed in watercolour and pencil in 1976 - Literature: E. Fuchs-Belhamri. Edgar Augustin. Plastiken/Zeichnungen/Collagen/Radierungen. 2001, p. 77 - Provenance: Private collection, Hamburg - German sculptor and painter. After studying at the Hamburg academy he became master student of G. Seitz in 1965.
