Original Description
"La Conquête du Cheval" by Jean Dunand is a mesmerizing Art Deco masterpiece that captures the dynamic spirit of early 20th-century modernism. Created circa 1925-1930 during the peak of Dunand's lacquer artistry, the work showcases his innovative fusion of Western aesthetics with Japanese urushi techniques. The composition depicts stylized equine forms executed with bold, geometric precision - streamlined musculature rendered through gleaming ebony surfaces contrasted against rich vermilion and gold accents. These metallic hues don't merely decorate but seem to pulse with energy, embodying the Art Deco movement's celebration of industrial progress and velocity. Dunand's revolutionary eggshell lacquer technique creates extraordinary textural depth, where fractured shell fragments catch light like medieval mosaics reimagined for the Machine Age. As one of fewer than 160 surviving lacquer panels by Dunand, this piece occupies a pivotal position in decorative arts history, exemplifying the transition from craft to high art during the interwar period. The Metropolitan Museum of Art considers such works instrumental in elevating decorative objects to museum-worthy status.
For contemporary interiors, "La Conquête du Cheval" commands attention best in spaces with high ceilings (minimum 3m) and controlled natural lighting to accentuate its lacquer's reflective qualities. Consider pairing it with Macassar ebony furniture or polished nickel accents that echo its metallic detailing, avoiding competing patterns within a 2m radius. The artwork's warm gold and crimson palette harmonizes exceptionally with Farrow & Ball's "India Yellow" or "Picture Gallery Red" walls, creating a jewel-box effect. In corporate settings, place it opposite glass partition walls to create dramatic light refraction - ideally scaled to 120-150cm width for boardrooms or executive suites. For residential spaces, position as a focal point above minimalist credenzas in entryways, accompanied by Ruhlmann-style bronze sconces. The artwork's inherent verticality balances low-slung sectional sofas beautifully in loft environments, with recommendation for 10-15 lux accent lighting at 30-degree angles to preserve the fragile lacquer surface while maximizing visual impact.
