Description | Jim's of Lambertville Fine Art Gallery is proud to present this sculpture by Androusov Vadim (1895 - 1975) Androusov Vadim (a.k.a. Vadime Androusow), the grandson of celebrated German archeologist Heinrich Schliemann, was born in St. Petersburg, Russia in 1895. Vadim studied sculpture at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière with Antoine Bourdelle, a distinguished sculptor and former student of Auguste Rodin. For his subjects, Vadim was drawn to classical antiquity, possibly influenced by his grandfather’s work on Aegean civilizations. Many of Vadim’s sculptures feature figures from Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey. Vadim preferred working with terracotta, plaster, wood, and stone over bronze, a popular material among sculptors at that time. After attending the Académie de la Grande Chaumière, Vadim moved on to several collaborations with infamous interior decorators. His Neoclassical icons appeared on furniture crafted by André Arbus and Jean Pascaud from the 1930s until the 1950s. Vadim’s sculptures were also featured at the Salon des Tuileries and the Salon des Indépendants. |
