AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Metal sculpture in the Art Deco style, dating to around the 1930s.
During the Art Deco era, there was a strong fascination with speed, sport, and modernity.
The skier’s fluid lines and curved, elongated pose are a classic example.
The use of polished metal on a dark wooden base, simulating a mountain slope, was a popular combination in the 1930s for ornaments and sporting trophies.
Furthermore, the close-fitting cap and neck scarf reflect the typical early-20th-century vintage ski attire.
The statuette will be packaged impeccably and insured.
