<p>[QUOTE=&quot;aaroncab, post: 315296, member: 3974&quot;]I think this bust was made by Dora De Pedery Hunt - the signature matches - and I&#039;ve found some pictures online of her crafting similar small busts - for example here:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://magazine.utoronto.ca/time-capsule/dora-de-pederyhunt-clay-sculpture/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://magazine.utoronto.ca/time-capsule/dora-de-pederyhunt-clay-sculpture/" rel="nofollow">http://magazine.utoronto.ca/time-capsule/dora-de-pederyhunt-clay-sculpture/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Dora was a Hungarian-Canadian who did a lot of medals/coins </p><p>and relief work but also did busts and other sculptures. </p><p><br /></p><p>So assuming this is her work - does anyone recognize the subject? I know it&#039;s probably not someone famous - but - you never know. There is some marking on the bottom side of the base, under the signature - and I&#039;m not sure if it is letters or numbers - or anything really, but maybe it is. Possibly reads Vogel or Josef or ...something? </p><p><br /></p><p>Oh also - I bought this a few years ago off a Canadian ebayer who didn&#039;t know anything about it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Pics! (Including the base it&#039;s about 7&quot; tall.) (And thanks again!!)</p><p><br /></p><p>~</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]104560[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]104561[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]104562[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]104563[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]104564[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]104565[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]104566[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
