This is a wonderful estate find... A beautiful signed, "Jacques Lipchitz " pin/brooch... This very rare figural pin is set in a highly detailed, rustic looking gilt brass/goldtone setting in the design of what looks like a bird with a branch and tree trunk... Chaim Jacob Lipschitz (1891-1973) was born in Druskieniki, Lithuania to a Jewish family... This signed figural "Jacques Lipchitz" is a rare find...The jewish artists' first one-man show was held at Léonce RosenbergÂ's Galerie LÂ'Effort Moderne in Paris in 1920 and in 1924 he became a French citizen... LipchitzÂ's first important retrospective took place at Jeanne BucherÂ's Galerie de la Renaissance in Paris in 1930. Jaques Lipchitz became the pre-eminent sculptor of the Cubist movement, receiving international recognition... In 1925, the heavy, angular forms, which had characterized LipchitzÂ's Cubist output, gave way to the more abstract forms of his openwork sculptures, inspired in part by the African art that he so passionately collected. The pin measures approx. 1 7/8 " in long x 2 1/8" wide... This fabulous very rare high quality piece is in fabulous condition, and would be great to add to your designer signed jewelry collection... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PLEASE DO NOT BID IF YOU HAVE NO INTENTIONS TO PAY!!!...
