AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
“Nymph of the Valley” is an elegant bronze sculpture inspired by the work of Carlo Pittaluga (1880–1970), reflecting the poetic beauty of the female form and the flowing, nature-inspired aesthetic associated with the Art Nouveau movement.
The graceful figure is characterised by delicate contours, a serene pose and harmonious proportions. Its flowing lines evoke the organic forms and refined decorative sensibility that define Art Nouveau sculpture. The bronze surface is carefully hand-finished, bringing out the sculptural details and enhancing the depth and warmth of its rich patina.
Mounted on a polished marble base, the sculpture combines the fluid elegance of the figure with the solidity of natural stone. Its refined proportions and decorative presence make it an attractive addition to a sophisticated interior, a private collection or an office setting inspired by classical and Art Nouveau design.
This sculpture is a reproduction after Carlo Pittaluga (1880–1970), offering a decorative interpretation of the artistic tradition associated with his work.
The marble base is individually selected, so natural variations in colour and veining may occur. Each piece is hand-finished and may therefore display subtle individual characteristics.

Craftsmanship & Casting Technique
Each sculpture is individually cast using the traditional lost-wax casting method (cire perdue) and meticulously hand-finished by skilled artisans. This prestigious technique is renowned for capturing exceptional detail, refined textures and the timeless beauty of fine bronze sculpture, ensuring that every piece possesses its own unique character.
As a natural consequence of this artisanal casting process, small residual particles from production may occasionally remain inside the sculpture. This is an inherent characteristic of the traditional manufacturing technique and does not affect the quality, structural integrity, durability or artistic value of the artwork in any way.
