Vienna Bronze Arab Figurine - Arabian Warrior on Carpet - Bergmann

This typical motif of the Vienna Bronze period is also known as a so-called carpet bronze. At the beginning of the 20th century, Viennese bronze manufactories produced numerous bronze miniatures that were supposed to take the observer on a journey to the Orient. In doing so, a bronze carpet was often used as a basis for this particular motif. In this case, the bronze depicts an Arabian warrior with a rifle who sits on a carpet. This particularly detailed Vienna Bronze figurine was painted by hand and is equipped with the Bergmann stamp. Elaborate engravings, which are most prominent in the area of the Oriental rug, complement the overall impression of this Viennese carpet bronze.
