MG003F Authentic Models Art Horse

Art is forever, life is short is the Latin expression. This from an age when art was considered a learned craft for the talented. When ateliers were filled with articulated art models and plaster casts of classic sculpture. When masters had an apprentice finish the lesser details of now famous paintings. Finesse and expertise were pre-eminent goals. Both our art and our artist models closely match the style and content of ages past.

MG022 Authentic Models Cracked Porcelain Phrenology Head Inkwell

The Cracked Porcelain Phrenology Head Inkwell number MG022 by Authentic Models is a part of the Museum Reproductions Collection and measures 3.3L x 2.9W x 5.7H inches and weights 0.95 lbs. and is packaged in printed box. Victorian science was fascinated with the human brain. Phrenology was one of the fanciful results of highly creative research. Moods, data storage, creativity, and sensitivity were among the senses that were neatly catalogued and given a defined location. A doctors desk was not complete without a model of a head depicting the areas associated with each of the senses. An inkwell was at hand, as prescriptions were still written with a stylus and a nib. An interesting oddity, fascinating in its own way. Our porcelain inkwell is an exact replica of an antique phrenology head inkwell we found at auction years ago

MG023 Authentic Models Cool Character Phrenology Porcelain Head

The Cool Character Phrenology Porcelain Head number MG023 by Authentic Models is a part of the Museum Reproductions Collection and measures 5.5L x 6.5W x 11.4H inches and weights 4.3 lbs. and is packaged in kraft box, label. Phrenology, termed "the only true science of mind" in its day, was a generally accepted pseudo-science of the 19th century. Phrenology was believed to be the next step in the evolution of the four humors. It taught that a person's physiognomy showed moral, intellectual, and social development. It was also used to predict the future, assess a suitor, and evaluate job applications. More than a century later phrenology enjoys a revival of sorts. As the science of body features, it teaches that by observing someone's hands, feet, and face, their mind and soul can be revealed. All aspects of character, from perception to benevolence, were located in certain regions in the brain. An iconic tool of the medical profession, these faculties were rendered on a shaped, porcelain head. Such busts were popular in doctor's offices and Victorian libraries. The Phrenology Head was as much a symbol of 19th century science as a world globe in the workshop of a 16th century cartographer or an armillary in an astronomer's study. Choose between our two distinct Phrenology Heads. The authentic, exact replica shows all 48 faculties drawn with precision. Historic science at your fingertips. Our modern version displays attributes of character in cool, vibrant colors, and appeals to a natural curiosity about the mind and consciousness. Both are interesting as historical documents, and fascinate in their own way as highly decorative accessories. Both easily double as enigmatic and practical bookends.

The Victorian Rocking Horse number RH006 by Authentic Models is a part of the Museum Reproductions Collection and measures 56L x 18.3W x 47.5H inches and weights 135 lbs. and is packaged in palletized . Younger sons born into nobility or the gentry were often sent to serve at the Royal Court as pages of honor. Part of their education was learning tournament jousting. The master-at-arms used wooden horses mounted on swings to teach skills with sword and lance. This wooden horse evolved over time into the classic rocking horse. No upper class childrens playroom was without one. Some were mounted on oval wood rockers, others on a safety stand, where steel swings allowed for greater movement on a stationary base. Our iconic rocking horse is a full-sized reproduction of originals dating back to the 19th C. Hand carved in top quality mahogany. Hand made saddle and tack of real bridle leather. The expert skills of wood carvers, cabinetmakers, and saddlers are evident. Hand finished in a warm and glowing French-style varnish, slightly distressed to make it look somewhat aged. A timeless treasure and a dream-toy for both boys and girls. Imagine its value in 50 or 100 years!
