Nice sculpture by popular Miami artist Lewis Van Dercar (1913-1988), 9" tall, heavy (approx 5 1/2 lbs), made of cement with gold/silver finish, signed Van Dercar and VAN. No known edition; presumed to be a unique piece. Van Dercar was an interesting figure who considered himself to be a warlock or magus; he is perhaps best known his cement/concrete sculptures and built a large scale sculpture garden at his home. This appears to be a trantric pose of some kind in good condition. No reserve!
