Description from the seller
Woman with Cheetah – Sculpture signed Germano Cortese.
Prestigious author sculpture signed by Germano Cortese, entitled “Woman with Cheetah.” A refined artwork that blends the elegance of the Art Deco style with high-level artisan craftsmanship.
The composition depicts a woman elegantly seated on a red chair, wrapped in a richly fur trimmed in fine detail. She wears a decorated black dress, dark gloves, and heeled shoes, enhanced by turquoise-toned earrings and a necklace. In her hand she holds a long mouthpiece, an element that echoes the sophisticated aesthetic of the 1930s.
Beside her is depicted a cheetah lying on a decorated rug, shaped with great anatomical attention and carefully painted in the details of the spotted mantle. The scene rests on a circular base with gilded finishes and a glossy wooden support with a signature plaque “By Cortese.”
A work of strong visual impact, ideal for collectors and lovers of decorative sculptures of the Twentieth Century.
