Description from the seller
Statue depicting a nude young woman posing in front of a street lamp, decorated with pure 24-karat gold leaf.
• Sculptor: Luca Madrassi (Tricesimo, 1848 – France, 1919) was an Italian-born sculptor who became a French citizen, and was particularly active in Paris between the late 19th century and the early 20th century. He attended the prestigious École des Beaux-Arts and refined his technique through contact with prominent Parisian artistic circles (he also worked with the Scottish sculptor Lord Ronald Gower and frequented Antoine Bourdelle’s studio). In 1890, he obtained French citizenship. From the late 1870s onward, he regularly exhibited his works at the prestigious Salons of the Société des Artistes Français. His work focused primarily on allegorical and mythological sculptures, bust portraits, rustic figures, and genre subjects. His works range from late 19th-century academic taste and Neoclassicism to the early influences of the Art Nouveau movement. Today, his works are held in various public collections and continue to be highly prized on the international antiques market.
