About Renée Sintenis

Renée Sintenis

Young Bear

1932
Bronze with a brown patina (on a marble base)
Höhe ohne Sockel: 13,5 cm

Renée Sintenis typically produces up to 25 signed copies of her small bronze sculptures; our “Young Bear” is listed in H. Noack’s foundry catalog as a series comprising several copies, though they are not strictly limited or numbered sequentially. This older version is an early,
stand-alone small bronze sculpture that served as a prize at the Berlin International Film Festival in the 1950s, before the better-known variant, the “Berlin Bear” (1956, WVZ No. 227),
began to be awarded annually in dozens of gold and silver versions as Berlinale trophy.
