J. Rudens - Art Deco sculpture - "L'homme enchaîné"

An original very large French art deco strongman or a prisoner man pulling on his chains, ca 1930 Signed "J Rudens" on the plinth. Mounted on Belgian black marble plinth. Dimensions: Height 36cm Width 75cm Depth 18cm Dimensions: 51 x 31 x 20 cm (sculpture), Jean de Roncourt, Hervor et A. or J. Rubens signed who seem to be all pseudonyms from a single artist: Roncourt, Hervor or Rudens In very good condition. This piece was bought by my mother in the 60's, in a well-known antiquarian in Lisbon. The piece at the time of 1960 was already an antiquity We prefer you to lift it by hand, if you live outside of Portugal you may be responsible for scheduling a carrier to pick it up. We will be able to pack, but we would prefer some company to do it too. We will be ready to help you.
