About the Item

A fine cast patinated bronze of a nude child holding a baby duck with its mother at his feet titled “Duck Mother” by Edward Henry Berge (1876-1924). Berge was born in Baltimore, Maryland, studied at the Maryland Institute (currently known as the Maryland Institute College of Art or MICA) and was part of the first class of the Rinehart School of Sculpture, studying with J. Maxwell Miller and Hans Schuler. Upon completion of Rinehart School study, the three went together to Paris where they enrolled in the Académie Julian for three years and studied under Raoul Verlet and Auguste Rodin. Berge was a member of the National Sculpture Society and the National Arts Club. He is mainly known for his bronze monumental works and figures, created in the traditional manner in contrast with the avant-garde work of his contemporaries. Cast patinated bronze, signed Berge at the base, possibly a later recast dating to the early 20th century. Dimensions: 21.25 in H x 9.5 in W x 9.25 in D. Ref: 8
