This signed Italian Art Deco ceramic sculpture depicts a standing nude woman draped in blue and measures 44 cm high.
Description from the seller
A refined figurative sculpture in full-round ceramic, an excellent testimony to the Italian plastic arts excellence of the mid-20th century, fully attributable to the famous Turin workshop of the Ronzan brothers. The work depicts a standing female figure of extraordinary elegance and figurative composure, captured in a moment of intimate and modest contemplation. The nude body, with elongated lines and soft, harmonious modeling, is partially wrapped by a light glossy pale blue drape that flows sinuously along the contours, creating a suggestive chromatic and material contrast with the satin surface of the flesh. The sculpture rests balanced on a finely textured natural rock base, while the face with delicate features and the inclined head, framed by a soft mane in pinkish tones, clearly evokes the stylistic heritage and formal approach derived from the early experiences of the founding masters at the Lenci workshop. The piece stands at a notable height of 44 centimeters, with a base width of 10 centimeters. The specimen is preserved in generally excellent condition, preserving the hand-painted quality and the brilliance of the glazed parts, making it an object of considerable aesthetic charm and of definite interest to collectors of 20th-century ceramic art.
