Description
KARL ENS (Germany, 1867- 1940). "Emperor penguins". Glazed and glazed porcelain. Presents marks on the base. Measurements: 49,5 x 19,5 x 11 cm. During the XIX century the sculpture of animal thematic will reach finally an own status, inside the context of the romantic sculpture. Seeking to break away from the classical sculptural ideal, many artists saw in the animal theme a new way of expression, linked to the emotional and irrational nature, in a purely romantic sense. Karl Ens was a renowned German potter known for his porcelain creations. Ens developed his passion for ceramics at a young age, honing his skills under the tutelage of his father, Eduard Ens, who was also a respected potter. In 1890, Karl Ens took over his father's porcelain factory in Volkstedt and began expanding the business. Under his leadership, the company flourished. Ens was especially celebrated for his artistic bird and animal figures, which became his signature.
