One of the most desired American art deco table lamps! This lamp, named “Spirit of Modernism”, was designed in 1928 by sculptor Arthur von Frankenberg (1898 – 1992) for his company, Frankart. An unclothed young lady rises from a fantastic cityscape of skyscrapers and gazes to her right. The spelter lamp is in its original gunmetal patina and is marked on the back “Frankart” and “© 1928” the lamp was awarded design patent D77203 and is number L215 in the company literature. The spelter portion of the lamp is 13 ½” tall. The lamp has been rewired for safety. The lamp is pictured in American Art Deco, page 70.
