NICODEMUS POTTERY Bull Circa 1970
Circa 1970, this bull sculpture by Nicodemus Pottery has a rusty brown glaze with a high gloss finish. The thick bull bears his short horns with head down, with his tail whimsically twisted.
About the Artist:
Chester Nicodemus (1901-1990) was a Columbus, Ohio potter, sculptor, and teacher known for his small clay birds, as well as other wildlife, teapots and pitchers. His pieces are recognizable as being produced with variously colored translucent glazes, which enhanced the redness of the high iron content of Ohio clay to create a russet brown undertone.
Nicodemus earned a degree from Cleveland Art School and then went on to teach at Dayton Art School and Wittenberg college. In 1932, he became dean at the Columbus College of Art and Design and later taught at Ohio State University and served as president of the Columbus Art League. All of Nicodemus' molds and glazes were destroyed upon his death at his request.

LORENZO E. GHILIERI (1931-2020) Eagle Catching Salmon with Hiding Beaver Bronze Sculpture
Large bronze sculpture by American artist Lorenzo E. Ghilieri (1931-2020) depicts a majestic eagle with spread wings catching a salmon from a stream. In a small detail of humor by the artist, a small beaver sits crouched beneath tall grass to be spared from the eagle’s hunt. One of the most prolific sculptors of the American northwest, Ghilieri’s masterful attention to detail in this bronze is a testament to why his work has been held on permanent display at the White House and the Vatican. This is a large, magnificent piece of art that has patinated beautifully over the years and will feature prominently in any art collection.
