Description from the seller

Female bust – Pedro Ramón José Rigual (1863–1917) | Art nouveau th

Superb female bust signed Pedro Ramón José Rigual, born in Barcelona in 1863 and died in Paris in 1917.
First a student at the School of Fine Arts of Barcelona, he pursued the latter part of his career in Paris, where he established himself in the artistic milieu of the late 19th century. He exhibited notably at the Salon in 1891, 1892, 1893 and 1897, a key period of Art Nouveau.

This sculpture in regule with a bronze patina finish, resting on a marble pedestal, perfectly illustrates the Art Nouveau aesthetic: curved lines, softness of features, and emphasis on the female figure. An elegant work, decorative and filled with history.

Condition: In its original state (original patina, signs of time respecting authenticity)
Dimensions:
• Pedestal: 8 cm x 8 cm
• Total height: 16.5 cm
Materials: Regule & marble
Signature: Pedro Rigual

Ideal piece for lovers of Art Nouveau, antique sculpture and fine collectibles
