Description from the seller

This elegant bronze bust, set on a marble base, depicts a young woman with gathered hair and classic drapery, a work of the Neapolitan school dating from the late 19th to the early 20th century. The Neapolitan school was renowned for producing high-quality bronze sculptures, often portraying idealized female figures with Mediterranean and romantic influences, reflecting the taste for classical beauty typical of the Belle Époque.

These busts are particularly appreciated by collectors of 19th-century and early 20th-century Italian sculpture, by enthusiasts of Neapolitan art, and by those who wish to furnish their interiors with period pieces that embody refinement and elegance. The combination of patinated bronze and marble base gives the work notable aesthetic and historical value, making it perfect for classical interiors or for eclectic tastes. The Neapolitan school is celebrated for technical mastery and attention to detail, qualities that make these works highly sought after in the European antique market.
