Authentic signed Curtis Jere metal wall sculpture depicting an abstract cityscape with architectural buildings, a clocktower, arched bridge span, and boats along the waterline. Executed in mixed metals including copper, brass, and steel, with layered construction and strong dimensional depth.

This composition is more architectural than decorative, featuring repeating window forms, bridge arches, and vertical skyline elements that create a balanced horizontal silhouette. The piece has excellent visual rhythm and reads clearly from a distance while rewarding close inspection with intricate hand-worked details.

The surface retains its original hand-finished patina, with natural oxidation and tonal variation that has developed over time. The patina is warm and intentional, consistent with Curtis Jere studio works from this period.

A strong example of Jere’s narrative cityscape sculptures, well-suited for collectors, designers, or modern interiors seeking a statement wall piece with character and scale.
