Spirit of the Wind (Zephyr) - 1936

$4,000.00Price

Spirit of the Wind by Avard T. Fairbanks

This is a graceful figure study of the Art Deco using the human female figure to display a natural phenomenon.  It was created in 1936 during a period of time when the sculptor was creating automobile radiator ornaments for a variety of different cars.  It was never enlarged to life-size. 

The body purposefully demonstrates some disproportion with a twisting torsion for the visual effect.  The statue certainly depicts swift motion of wind. 

A small bronze casting of Zephyr can be made available for purchase.
