SoldThe rare stoneware sculpture depicting Europe and the Bull, designed by Joseph Simon for Søholm, Denmark, is a piece of art that combines both artistic and historical significance.
Joseph Simon's background as an artist, educated at the Academy of Art in Vienna, brings a high level of artistic craftsmanship and creativity to his works. His work for Søholm in the late 1960s is notable as Søholm was a renowned Danish ceramics company known for its high-quality pottery and collaborations with talented designers.
The sculpture's subject, "Europe and the Bull," is a classical theme in art and mythology. In Greek mythology, the story typically involves the god Zeus taking on the form of a bull to seduce or carry away Europa, a Phoenician princess. This theme has been explored by artists for centuries and often symbolizes themes of power, seduction, and transformation.
