Renée SINTENIS (1888-1965), Donkey, 1923 Patinated bronze proof on marble base Monogrammed RS and numbered 24 on the belly H. 15 (13 without base?) cm Literature: BUHLMANN (Britta E.), Renée SINTENIS, Werkmonographie der Skulpturen, Wissenschaftliche Buchgesellschat Darmstadt, 1987, number 190 p. 253. A comparable copy is kept at the Belvedere Gallery in Vienna under inventory no. 2459. Renée SINTENIS is a German artist renowned for her animal subjects. A friend of the poet Rainer Maria Rilke, she successfully navigated the avant-garde Berlin of the interwar period. Born into a French Huguenot family of Jewish descent, and rebellious against the dictates of the male-dominated academy, she was persecuted by the Nazi regime from 1934 onwards. The post-war years restored her to her rightful place, and she is best known for having created the Berlinale Golden Bear trophy.
