K-80 The Spring (issue of water from earth), prior to 1904, Incuse Reverse cast bronze, 228mm. RRRR (one of two in existence).
A early composition in Goetz’s “Jugendstil” (youth style) done during his Paris Period in 1900-1904.
A very naked young woman leisurely dips a hand of water from the spring located on the edge of the forest. In the background a young shepherdess tends her flock of sheep with the German Alps as a back-drop. Ornate Ginkgo leaves and vines form the perimeter.

<< <i>Much different than his later stuff. The first thing I noticed were the hands, much more proportionate than usual. I'm sure ya'll were noticing something else though

Hey, you're the one with the fetish for mammory glands...

He was a student/apprentice at the time. I think it was more a study piece than anything. Someone must have liked it and he cast another for them....just a WAG at this point in time though...
I also picked up 12 of his other early study pieces (all small) that he had done....just haven't had time to image them yet.
Also got his personal Petschaft...a handled wax-sealer tool that he had made.

An amazing piece that is definitely done in the style of the day.

Umm, I'd say "two of two."
What a humongous piece. It doesn't look like your typical Goetz.
