AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This sculpture, created by the artist Elli Malevolti, depicts an elegant ibis and is a masterwork of craftsmanship and style. The sculpture combines different materials and colors to create a harmonious and refined appearance. The head and legs are rendered in a bronze-like tone, while the body has a warm brown color with intricately engraved feathers.
Elli Malevolti is an Italian artist known for her 20th-century sculptures, especially of birds and wild animals.
Her works often consist of a combination of materials such as resin and brass, and showcase a distinctive style that captures the essence of her subjects.

The graceful posture of the ibis, with its curved beak and long, slender legs, gives the sculpture a natural look. The subtle textures and finish demonstrate the precision with which Malevolti works and emphasize her talent in creating refined sculptures that bring together nature and art in a remarkable way.

This work would not look out of place in an interior where nature, elegance, and art come together. It is a beautiful example of how a simple form can be brought to life through material choices and artistic finesse.
This sculpture is signed.

The sculpture shows a small crack at the neck area, not disruptive—see the last photo.
