    • BRONZE GROUP OF TWO AMERICAN SOLDIERS "ON TO VICTORY," BY EUGENE (FRIM JENO) KORMENDI (AMERICAN/HUNGARIAN, 1889-1959)
      Nov. 05, 2016

      BRONZE GROUP OF TWO AMERICAN SOLDIERS "ON TO VICTORY," BY EUGENE (FRIM JENO) KORMENDI (AMERICAN/HUNGARIAN, 1889-1959)

      Est: $2,000 - $4,000

      BRONZE GROUP OF TWO AMERICAN SOLDIERS "ON TO VICTORY," BY EUGENE (FRIM JENO) KORMENDI (AMERICAN/HUNGARIAN, 1889-1959) stamped on the edge of the base ''ROMAN BRONZE CORP. N.Y.'' Eugene Kormendi studied at the Academy of Budapest and was a well known artist who worked with August Rodin and Jean Paul Lorenz. In 1939, while visiting America with his wife Elizabeth, a painter and a ceramist, war broke out. The couple was unable to return home and Eugene eventually accepted a position of artist-in-residence at Notre Dame University. He was considered a brilliant teacher and created many statues, including the 22 foot high bronze statue in Washington D.C. "The Light of the World." According to the "The Art of Eugene and Elizabeth Kormendi", New York, 1951, a four foot version of the present lot is illustrated and described as follows: "His best prize winning group, which has won recognition at the Chicago Art Institute and in New York, in Palm Beach, Florida and other cities, in green bronze, shows two Striding American doughboys marching to Victory. It seems to connote a spiritual rather than martian victory." - h:24 w: 23 d:9 in. Provenance: Private Collection from the Historic Edmund Jennings Lee House, Alexandria, Virginia
