Teamwork at its best: The Comedian Harmonists are both a cult and a classic: their wit and charm, their virtuosity and perfection are still unrivalled today. Loriot portrays the Comedian Harmonists as a symbol of friendship and harmony - both human and musical. Their passion for music, their sense of humour and their absolute will to perfection form the bond that holds them together and makes a unity out of so many different characters, and in his own way Loriot has created a monument to the legendary ensemble. With as much accuracy, presence and esprit as only an artist who himself mastered the profession of entertainment at the highest level can manage. The Comedian Harmonists speak from the heart to music lovers, art lovers and all those whose concept of success is based on successful collaboration and fine-tuning.ars mundi exclusively offers Loriot's Comedian Harmonists in two editions: in fine bronze or in art casting in Loriot's original colour scheme.edition in fine bronze.

When Michelangelo created the vaulted frescoes in the Sistine Chapel in Rome between 1508 and 1512, he was already playing a decisive role in the artistic and intellectual life of Italy. The ceiling fresco depicts the story of creation in nine scenes. Two hands form its centre: the one on the viewer's left belongs to the reclining Adam, the one on the right to God the Father descending from a cloud. The indirect touch of their two index fingers made the fresco famous: the gesture symbolises the miracle of creation with incredible lightness and elegance. Michelangelo is not actually depicting the creation of man, but rather his animation, symbolising the transcendence of the divine spark. The wall object lifts the centrepiece of the spectacular work into the third dimension. The object heightens the sculptural effect and concentrates entirely on the content: the longing for the divine and its fulfilment in gifted art. Original: Sistine Chapel, Rome. Edition in bronze. Cast by hand using the lost wax technique. Size 58 x 25 x 15 cm. Weight 9 kg.
