Bronze patinated bust of a lady in Art Nouveau style, on a grey veined marble base, dating to 1910–1920, in good used condition.
Description from the seller
Bust sculpture depicting an elegant lady inspired by the aesthetics of the Art Nouveau movement. The figure is conceived with a marked decorative sense and a great fluency of lines, characteristic of this artistic style developed between the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
The piece is made of patinated bronze, presenting a dark-toned surface with soft golden reflections on the most prominent areas, the result of natural wear and the evolution of the patina. The composition stands out for the delicacy of the facial modeling, the long stylized neck, and the sinuous treatment of the gathered hair, elements that convey movement and refinement. The wide drapes surrounding the shoulders harmoniously integrate into the whole through organic, undulating forms.
The bust rests on a prismatic base of veined gray marble, whose sober design contrasts with the expressiveness of the figure and enhances its sculptural presence. The combination of patinated metal and natural stone reflects the decorative tastes prevalent during the Art Nouveau period.
A piece of notable ornamental value, representative of European decorative sculpture from the early 20th century, conceived to beautify salons, desks, or display cabinets in a collection.
Tracked shipping and careful packaging.
