Anzolo Fuga Glass Vessel and Lanceray Bronze Sculpture Available With Millea Bros. Ltd

In early February, Millea Bros. Ltd will offer a wide selection of paintings, furniture, decorative arts, and more. One of the featured lots on day three of the event is a Murano glass vase attributed to Anzolo Fuga. Born in 1914, Fuga studied at the Istituto d’Arte di Venezia, where he developed a fascination with stained glass. At this time, craftspeople commonly used sheets of homogeneous glass to create stained glass. However, defying conventional ways of glassblowing, Fuga employed glass fragments, murrhine, and glass rods fused with lead and acid to create a distinct visual effect. He then began a stained-glass department at the Istituto d’Arte di Venezia in 1938 and since has contributed to the development of stained glass art. The offered lot is a transparent blown glass vessel decorated with colorful murrhine. 

The sale also features a bronze sculpture created after Russian artist Eugene Alexandrovich Lanceray. He was fond of sculpting from a very young age. Over the years, he became associated with Mir iskusstva, a revolutionary Russian art movement in the 19th and 20th centuries. Titled Zaporozhian Cossack after Battle, the available bronze piece shows two horses and an old man. It dates back to 1874. Explore more lots and register to bid online on Bidsquare.
