Description from the seller
French bronze sculpture by Henry Étienne Dumaige (1830-1888), depicting Joan of Arc.
The figure appears barefoot with peasant attire and in a stance of listening to the voices that, according to tradition, urged her mission. One hand rests on the chest while the other moves toward the ear, with the gaze raised. The composition stands out for the detailed modeling of the face, the hands, the hair, and the folds of the clothing. Dated between 1860 and 1870.
Signed “H. DUMAIGE” on the base.
