Italy, 1912, bronze trophy donated by the Villa Lonati Stand to the Milan Shooting Union. Work by sculptor Michele Vedani. Height 56.00 cm – marble base 23.00 x 23.00 cm – circumference of the cup 13.00 cm An imposing sculpture in a distinctly Art Nouveau style depicting a young woman—the personification of Victory—who, leaping into the air, presents the winner with a laurel wreath. The trophy stand consists of four rifles resting on an oak trunk, whose branches support the cup. The cup, made of silver and shaped like a traditional cup, bears the following inscription stamped in a circle at the base: “UNIONE TIRO A VOLO MILANO - STAND VILLA LONATI - 6TH SOCIAL CHAMPIONSHIP 1912.” At the base is the large coat of arms of the city of Milan, featuring doves taking flight. In the lower corner is the signature of the artist, the Milanese sculptor Michele Vedani (1874–1969). The sculpture is accompanied by its original base in red Levanto marble. An extremely rare artistic trophy of great beauty.
