AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The artwork, dating from the heyday of the Art Nouveau period (circa 1890-1910), depicts an elegant seated nymph by the water's edge in a serene interaction with two swans.

The scene perfectly captures the symbolism and calm that are so characteristic of this art movement.

The detailed high-relief depiction is executed in metal with a rich, layered bronze patina, framed by gold-colored, ornamental whip-stroke motifs.

The whole piece is mounted on a robust panel of solid oak, providing a beautiful, warm contrast with the metalwork.

The object is in good, authentic condition with a natural patina that testifies to its historical age.

Dimensions: 37.5 cm x 27 cm

A beautiful collectible and an absolute top piece for the Belle Époque enthusiast.
