    Beautiful and rare bronze cachet of a stylized deer by the sculptor Adrianus Remiëns (The netherlands, 1890-1972). It was performed by Winkelman and van der Bijl at the time, around 1920. This cachet is also photographed in the book about Adrianus Remiëns, written by A.M. de Jong in 1929.

    At the bottom is a monogram, which indicates that the cachet has been used.

    Biography:
    Adrianus Remiëns (Amsterdam, 1890-1972) was not only a sculptor, but also a painter and draftsman. He was educated at the Amsterdam Drawing School for Art Crafts, his teacher was the well known Joseph Mendes da Costa.

    In addition to being a painter, he was mainly a sculptor of human and animal figures, mask heads and reliefs in a Symbolist Expressionist style. His sculptures were very stylized with little detail. This is also clearly reflected in this deer. He worked for Kunstaardewerkfabriek Regina in Gouda and Winkelman en van der Bijl, who also executed some of his designs in bronze, like this cachet. In addition.

    Remiëns also collaborated with the famous architect Berlage, for example, and designed building sculptures and facade ornaments for Amsterdam School buildings, including on Mercatorplein.

    During his life he lived and worked in Amsterdam, Blaricum and Laren. He was a member of various artists' groups, such as the Dutch Circle of Sculptors, St. Lukas, The Independents and the Association for Beeldende Kunstenaars Laren-Blaricum.

    His work can also be found in Dutch museums, for example the Centraal Museum in Utrecht has a bronze deer in their collection, made by Adrianus Remiëns.

    Jordens recebeu a sua formação artística na Teekenschool voor Kunstambachten (1904-1908?) sob a orientação de Kees Oosschot e mais tarde na Rijksschool voor Kunstnijverheid em Amesterdão (por volta de 1908-1914), onde estudou com Willem Retera e August Falise. Em 1923-1924, ele aprimorou ainda mais suas habilidades participando de um curso noturno de cerâmica ministrado por Bert Nienhuis.

    De 1919 até aproximadamente 1950, Jordens serviu como instrutor de escultura na Kunstnijverheidsschool Quellinus, que mais tarde se tornou o Institute for Kunstnijverheidsonderwijs. Ele transmitiu seu conhecimento a estudantes notáveis como Suze Berkhout, Jeanne Bijlo, Geert Marree e Bé Thoden van Velzen.[

    Além da carreira docente, Jordens realizou encomendas de esculturas arquitetônicas e talha, contribuindo para projetos de diversos arquitetos.

    Entre as suas obras destacam-se os elementos decorativos das fachadas do Tuschinskitheater em Amesterdão e do Banco Incasso em Enschede. Ele também se envolveu ativamente na pintura, criando um conjunto diversificado de obras que incluía composições de animais e figuras, nus e retratos.

    Jordens era afiliado a associações artísticas como Arti et Amicitiae, Sint-Lucas e o holandês Kring van Beeldhouwers (Círculo de Escultores).

    Participou de diversas exposições e ganhou reconhecimento ao receber a medalha de prata por sua escultura na Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes, em Paris, em 1925.

    O artista faleceu aos 83 anos e foi cremado em Westgaarde.
