DESCRIPTION:
|
Pendant made in three-coloured 18ct gold with moving parts and with a horse hair tail. This pendant was a specific commission, one of six unique pieces of jewellery that Lam designed for the Aurea 72 exhibition in the Palazzo Strozzi, Florence. The inspiration for it came from an oil painting of the same name in the Guggenheim Museum, New York, which he painted in 1951.
