Date: 1925

Museum: Museo Art Nouveau y Art Déco - Casa Lis (Salamanca, Spain)

Technique: Sculpture

The world of dance was the most important source of inspiration for chryselephantine designers. Even the most modern proposals, as the one from The Triadic Ballet of Bauhaus, served as a model to create these little sculptures made of bronze and ivory. Poertzel’s model reminds us of that avant-garde proposal, and more specifically of one of its members, Daisy Spies.
