One of the 15 new exhibitors at Bowman Antiques Fairs’ antiques and art fair at the Great Yorkshire Showground in Harrogate on Saturday and Sunday, May 20-21, is Belgian dealer Frank van Laer from Antwerp who trades in decorative pieces.
Among the stock Van Laer is bringing is this 18in tall (46cm) figure of a vulture, left, priced at £320. It was created in plaster by French animalier Marguerite Delage in 1920 as a preparatory work for her final bronze sculpture of the bird.
