"Descending Night" is a remarkable bronze sculpture by Adolph A. Weinman, created around 1915. This piece depicts a graceful, nude female angel with expansive wings, her head gently lowered as she brushes her flowing hair. The sculpture embodies the transition from day to night, capturing the serene and contemplative essence of the evening. Originally designed for the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco, "Descending Night" was intended to adorn one of the fountains at the event. The monumental version stood atop a decorated column in the Court of the Universe, complementing its companion piece, "Rising Day." These sculptures were part of a series that showcased Weinman's skill in blending classical forms with modern sensibilities. Weinman, a German-born American sculptor, was renowned for his contributions to public monuments and coinage. His works, including "Descending Night," reflect his mastery in capturing the human form and conveying profound allegorical themes. The sculpture is currently part of the Smithsonian American Art Museum's collection.

Magnificent

This piece is extraordinary! I actually own two of them. They were superbly packed, as they are quite heavy. The base is Stone. I’m pretty sure it’s a combination of black marble and a stunning coral pattern onyx. It’s quite substantial in size. I highly recommend this dealer! I have bought dozens and dozens of this dealers statues. The packaging and shipping time is superb. Buy with confidence!

A beautiful statue

My statue is strikingly beautiful and well made. Quite heavy and much larger than I thought. I placed it on a round pedestal table and it looks incredible.

Beautiful! Eye popping decoration.

Had trouble with the mounts not being well done and that the plaque did not lay flat to a surface. But the beauty of the piece made it worth the trouble.

All is o.k. Thanks for fast providing and delivering to Germany

Fast delivery within some days to Europe (Germany), UPS has collected the custom fees of about 45$. The quality of the statue ist very good, except a sharp edge on the labia. This shows that it is a copy of the originals. However, since meanwhile anywhere in the world the original is available (there are only some photos where the labia are looking more naturally), I am completely satisfied. Thanks for providing and delivering !

Descending night

Descending Night is the most beautiful, the most sensual statue I have ever seen. I feel in love with this piece of art when I first saw an original at Hearst Castle in 1976. I searched for a replica for many years. I am delighted to have found my replica made by Bronzhaus. It is exquisite! Everyone who visits my home remarks that Descending Night is supremely gorgeous.
