ABOUT PHOTOGRAVURE: Photogravure is an intaglio printmaking process utilizing a carefully etched copper plate made from the original negative/image. Prints are made by pressing suitable paper heavily down upon the inked copper plate which has been intricately etched to varying depths corresponding with the actual tonality of the original negative, This precisely etched plate combined with a fine “honeycomb” screen controls the amount of ink to be transferred to the paper at any given point in direct proportion to the variation of tone in the original image. The result is a true continuous tone print which combines many qualities of a traditional silver based photograph with a tactile feel similar to an etching, engraving or lithograph. Rich in tonal detail, the photogravure process produces delicately rendered shades for a look which is unique in the world of photographic print making. In the early to mid 1900’s photogravure was selected (when budgets allowed) for special high quality publishing and portfolio projects, but due to its significant expense and labor, the process is rarely seen today. From Man Ray and Ruth Bernhard to Brett Weston and Ansel Adams, many of the world’s most renowned photographic masters have published their images in the rich photogravure process.

RARE! Jaguar Carnival Carved Wooden Latin American Folk Art Carousel Circus Ride
You can judge for yourselves from the pictures above or I will share my opinions and past conversations below. I estimate the piece to be approximately 100 years old, give or take 1/4 century. I’m calling it a Jaguar due to the cultural significance. One could argue tiger, leopard or any other cat. There are remnants of black paint on the face and legs that would indicate tiger stripes. I believe it was carved in Southern Mexico or Guatemala, but it could originate from any Latin American country or culture. One appraiser speculated that it was a carnival piece to be carried above your head on a pole during a parade or festival. I disagree with that. I have mounted it on a pole before and it is very awkward to lift. The weight distribution is heavy toward the rear. I believe it would be lighter and better balanced if it was intended for carrying. (see location of pole hole). Because of the painted saddle and location of the pole mount, I agree with the majority of professionals who call it a carousel animal. Probably from a small traveling circus or road show. A small home-made carousel, mounted on a donkey drawn cart, with 4 or 5 animals for toddlers to ride. I spoke with the curator of Latin American Arts at a San Antonio, USA Museum many years ago who agreed. He was excited about the piece and said he was writing a book on Latin American Carousel animals. I wonder if he ever finished it? (NO CHARGE FOR THE STAND). NOTE: Pictures 3 and 4 show him mounted on a mic stand. You can see how he sits on a pole. The hole is right behind the neck and is reinforced on the bottom (picture 11). I’ve enjoyed displaying this unique piece for the past 20 years or so. It is an interesting decorative item, a great conversation starter and fun for speculation. But it is time to move it on to another home. Feel free to ask questions or to make comments. I will be happy to share other opinions below. Condition is as shown in the pictures. Nothing more – nothing less. I’ve not touched it, other than to dust it. As best I can tell, there are many overcoats of paint. There are multiple repairs and reinforcements using tin or steel straps. There are nailed repairs and steel rods inserted. The bottom hole has been reinforced (this may be original to the piece) There are several losses and breaks to the wood. This thing has been well loved, well used and often repaired. Please examine pictures and ask for more if required. Overall height – 17 to the tops of the ears. Overall length – 21 tail to nose. Overall width – 5. Height at rear – 14. Height at painted saddle – 13. Length of legs (front and back) – 11 to the seam. Weight (Jaguar ONLY, no stand, no packing) – almost 12 pounds! NOTE: I had a museum quality weighted copper stand built for display. I’m sorry but I can not extend my usual return guarantee once it leaves the country. Examine the pictures closely and ask any questions you may have. I’ve been specializing in quality art and antiques for the past 40 years. I list to sell.

Gene Moore For Tiffany Sterling Silver & Enamel Circus Horse
For your consideration is a great Gene Moore Tiffany sterling silver & enamel Circus Horse, made circa 1980’s. This Piece is a part of Gene Moore’s Legendary Circus Series. Neat Circus Horse figure on rolling Wheels. Great heavy gauge silver, very decorative with nice detailing. This Piece is in good age appropriate condition- typical wear from moderate use, a bend to the rear axel (see photo #10), and a small piece of Black enamel missing from side of Wheel (see photo #11).
