GUSTINUS AMBROSI (Eisenstadt, 1893 - Vienna, 1975). "The Sacrifice of Isaac", 1927. Bronze. Signed and dated. Exhibitions: "European sculpture of the 20th century", European Museum of Modern Art (MEAM), Barcelona, 2014. Measurements: 118 cm. In this sculpture we see the sacrifice of Isaac (Genesis 22), specifically the moment when Abraham is stopped by the angel, although on this occasion he is not represented in the equation. This scene illustrates the theological concept that divine mercy rewards those who have faith, and in it we see Abraham's unquestioning acceptance of the divine message. The realistic and expressive style in the manner of resolving the mimicry and anatomy, as well as Abraham's ecstatic face, is tremendously noteworthy. His twisted body Gustinus Ambrosi began his career prematurely. At first he devoted himself to music, but soon had to give it up due to an incipient deafness. He then turned to sculpture, producing his first work, "Man with a Broken Neck", with a Rodinian title and conception, at the age of 17. His career went beyond the national borders and he produced as many as 3000 sculptures. He specialised in biblical and mythological subjects.

Ambrosi, GustinusPromethidenlos(Eisenstadt 1893-1975 Wien) Verkleinerte Fassung des 1917 entstandenen Kolossalwerkes, das sich heute im Gustinus Ambrosi Museum in Wien befindet. Carrara-Marmor. Rechts unten signiert und 1928 datiert. H. 115 cm. - Die Skulptur wurde vor ca. 25 Jahren in der Nähe von Neuwied ausgegraben. Sie wies Beschädigungen auf sowie, bedingt durch die jahrzehntelange Erdlagerung, Korrosionen der Oberfläche und wurde von einem Steinbildhauer fachgerecht restauriert. Trotz der entstandenen Mängel handelt es sich um ein herausragendes Werk österreichischer Bildhauerkunst des 20. Jh. Die Figur ist dokumentiert in der Festschrift der Gustinus Ambrosi Gesellschaft in dem Beitrag von Prof. Otto Plettenbacher. Das qualvolle Schicksal des Prometheus konnte Ambrosi mit seinen Vorstellungen nicht in Einklang bringen. Die männliche Figur ist nicht angekettet, Mann und Frau sind nach Ambrosis Darstellungen durch die Leidenschaft aneinander gekreuzigt. Die Fesseln des Mannes sind Frauenhände." Nach Ambrosi stürmen Mann und Frau gleichsam aus dem Felsen. - Lit. Mitteilungen der Gustinus Ambrosi Gesellschaft, Wien 2007. - Lit. Vollmer 1, Saur AKL 3.

Gustinus Ambrosi, Bust of Max Jaffé, Austria, 1923
Est: €3,200 - €4,000
Painted plaster Austria, 1923 Gustinus Ambrosi (1893-1975) - Austrian sculptor and lyricist Embossed signature 'Ambrosi' and date '1923' on the front Expressionist accomplishment Height: 60 cm With a copy of a letter from Gustinus Ambrosi to Max Jaffé, in which he refers to this bust Gustinus Ambrosi counts as one of the most prominent sculptors of classical modernism; this sculpture may well be one of a kind, we don't know a second copy. The present bust by Gustinus Ambrosi shows the renowned Viennese art printer Max Jaffé and dates from 1923. The plaster sculpture in an expressionist manner is painted in beige. Although influences of masters such as Michelangelo and Rodin can be found in Ambrosi's work, the Austrian sculptor has his own unique style. It is characterized by an incredibly three-dimensional quality. The hair, beard and wrinkles on the forehead appear as if still malleable. The pensive facial expression and the slightly tilted head give the bust a great expressive power. Two years after this bust was made, a portfolio with 24 prints of Ambrosi's work was published. The production of the heliotypes was executed by Max Jaffé. In reference to this, there is a letter by Ambrosi to Jaffé from the 25th of January 1925, in which he refers to the bust offered here. Jaffé was considered a pioneer in the field of heliography. Many plates for books and artist's portfolios were printed in his renowned workshop in Vienna. The bust by Gustinus Ambrosi shows some paint flaking and a major loss at the left ear. It was broken several times and has been restored professionally (some cracks are still visible). The bust measures 60 cm in height. Gustinus Ambrosi (1893-1975) Gustinus Ambrosi was born in Eisenstadt, Austria, in 1893. In 1907, he started an apprenticeship with Jakob Kozourek, one of Prague's largest sculptor and stuccoer companies. More apprenticeships followed in Graz. Here he was a master student at the imperial and royal Staatsgewerbeschule, where Georg Winkler recognized and promoted Ambrosi as a portraitist. At the age of 16, he was given his first public recognition. Exhibitions and awards followed. In Vienna, he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts. In the interwar period, he worked for commissions in various European cities. During the Second World War, some of his works were destroyed, and Ambrosi mainly worked on his poems. Before his death the sculptor bequeathed some of his works to the Austrian republic. Ambrosi's sculptural oeuvre comprises over 2300 works, including many portraits of important people from the sphere of politics, science and the arts. Max Jaffé (1845-1939) Max Jaffé was born in Schwerin in 1845. After a trade apprenticeship, he attended the art school in Nuremberg, where he became acquainted with photography, which was still in its infancy at that time. In 1865, Jaffé went to Paris to learn the photographic profession. From 1869 onwards, he lived in Vienna, where he worked for the court photographer Josef Löwy, before opening his own studio. Here he worked on commissions for portraits, landscape and architectural photographs. During that time, he experimented with new methods to improve photographic processes, in particular he developed heliotype printing, a method which reproduces most faithfully the tone and color of the original. Today Jaffé is considered a pioneer in this field. When the Education and Research Institute for Graphics in Vienna was founded, Max Jaffé accepted a position as a teacher of photography. From 1890, he published the magazine 'Die Photographie' for several years, before retiring after the First World War. (cko) Shipping costs excl. statutory VAT and plus 2,5% (+VAT) shipping insurance.

Ambrosi, Gustinus Promethidenlos (Eisenstadt
Est: - €9,000
Ambrosi, Gustinus Promethidenlos (Eisenstadt 1893-1975 Wien) Verkleinerte Fassung des 1917 entstandenen Kolossalwerkes, das sich heute im Gustinus Ambrosi Museum in Wien befindet. Carrara-Marmor. H. 115 cm. Rechts unten signiert und 1928 datiert. - Die Skulptur wurde vor ca. 17 Jahren in der Nähe von Neuwied ausgegraben. Sie weist erhebliche Beschädigungen auf sowie, bedingt durch die jahrzehntelange Erdlagerung, Korrosionen der Oberfläche. Trotz der durch widrige Umstände entstandenen Mängel handelt es sich um ein herausragendes Werk österreichischer Bildhauerkunst des 20. Jh. und sollte einer Restaurierung durch einen erstklassigen Fachmann zugeführt werden. Die Figur ist dokumentiert in der Festschrift der Gustinus Ambrosi Gesellschaft in dem Beitrag von Prof. Otto Plettenbacher. Das qualvolle Schicksal des Prometheus konnte Ambrosi mit seinen Vorstellungen nicht in Einklang bringen. Die männliche Figur ist nicht angekettet, Mann und Frau sind nach Ambrosis Darstellungen „durch die Leidenschaft aneinander gekreuzigt. Die Fesseln des Mannes sind Frauenhände." Nach Ambrosi stürmen Mann und Frau gleichsam aus dem Felsen. - Lit. Mitteilungen der Gustinus Ambrosi Gesellschaft, Wien 2007. - Lit. Vollmer 1, Saur AKL 3.

GUSTINUS AMBROSI (AUSTRIAN, 1893-1975) ETERNAL SPRING
Est: -
Signed and dated Opus Ambrosi 1916 Bronze, rich brown modulated patination, on white veined marble column, with black veined marble foot Group 60 cm (23 3/4 in): Column 109 cm (43 in) (2) Eternal Spring dates from the formative period in Ambrosi's career, before his stay in Paris (1927-32). Already, his response to the two great influences on his work, Michelangelo and Rodin, is apparent. The anatomy is strong and assured; the composition is intricate; and the theme is intense and sensual. In the Gustinus Ambrosi-Museum, Vienna, there is a marble version of Eternal Spring, dated 1916. Literature: Felix Braun (foreword), Ambrosi Mappe, Vienna & Leipzig, 1919, the plaster illus. pl. 54 (See colour plate on page 22).
