AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant and exceptionally detailed bronze sculpture of an elegant young woman in a flowing, pleated dress.

The forward-leaning posture, the finely worked hands, the hairstyle and, especially, the rich fall of the drapery give the sculpture a very graceful and classical appearance. The warm bronze-colored patina emphasizes the details and provides a beautiful contrast with the heavy, high-gloss black marble plinth.

On the back is the original foundry mark:

“Fonderia del Bronzo – Italia – Cera Persa”

This refers to production in Italy according to the traditional cire perdue / lost-wax technique, a classic method for casting bronze sculptures.

The sculpture also bears a signature in bronze, but the artist is intentionally not attributed in this listing.

A decorative and stylish object that fits equally well in both classical and modern interiors. Thanks to the combination of dark bronze and the black marble base, the piece has a luxurious and timeless look.

Features

* Material: bronze
* Base: black marble
* Origin: Italy
* Cast using the cire perdue / lost-wax technique
* With foundry mark
* With signature
* Very refined detailing
* Beautiful natural patina

The photos are part of the description and give a good impression of the execution and condition.

The sculpture is packed very carefully and professionally for shipping. Pickup is also possible.
