Signed "Lion in Frost" Illuminated Lucite and Chrome Table With Glass Top
About the Item
This piece is a rare signed "Lion In Frost" table that lights up a room literally and figuratively. The base is a massive sculptural piece of lucite atop a chrome and brass foundation. There is a rectangular piece of glass on top of the base now, but the size and shape of the glass could be altered later if desired. The base has an electrical cord underneath that can be pulled out as needed to turn on the piece so it will glow from within.
Lion in Frost was a high-end designer furniture company founded by Max Kuehne in New York during the 1960's. The exceptionality and high quality of Lion in Frost pieces makes them rare and highly sought after vintage items. The fact that this pieces lights up is an even more rare element.

Max Kuehne
Born in Halle, Germany in 1880, Max Kuehne was a colorist who created cheerful landscapes that appear to be painted spontaneously and with freshness. He studied with William Merritt Chase and Kenneth Hayes at the Chase School in New York. In 1910, he embarked on a bicycling trip, traveling through England, France, Germany, Holland and Belgium. To support this trip he did portrait commissions along the way. When he returned to New York City, he set up a studio in Greenwich Village and was a student of Robert Henri from whom he learned a dark impressionist style. He also became close with such avant garde artists as Guy Pene du Bois, William Glackens, William Zorach and Maurice and Charles Prendergast, which also influenced his dark work including street scenes and docks in New York City. However, three years in Spain, and painting trips to Gloucester lightened his palette as did time in Paris where he was much influenced by the Fauves, Nabis, and decorative painters. By 1912 he was producing work that would make him known as a "colourist of great distinction" by producing "paintings full of sparkling sunlight." He became a member of the artistic community later in Rockport, Massachusetts, with Gifford Beal, Leon Kroll, Paul Manship, Edward Hopper and Jonas Lie. Many of his finest paintings done later in his career are of the busy harbors and piers of Gloucester and Rockport. His work was widely exhibited including the National Academy of Design, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburgh.
