AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A Nana is an expressive, colorful representation of a woman created by the Franco-American artist Niki de Saint Phalle. The figures are worldwide symbols of the strong, free and self-assured woman.
What you should know about Nana sculptures:
Origin: The first Nana came to life in 1965. Niki de Saint Phalle based the name on the eponymous character from a novel by Émile Zola.
Characteristics: The sculptures are iconic for their exuberant shapes, bright colors and dynamic poses. They are regarded as modern variants of primal goddesses and the Venus of Willendorf.
Their size: the largest size of the biggest central sculpture is listed. Very decorative and true eye catchers. On a wooden base. There are two pieces!!
Due to age and health we are thinning the collection with a heavy heart, but it is good to know that it will go to enthusiasts.
