Paul Wullems

bronze sculpture signed “J. Demarez”, representing an elegant dancing couple in traditional or formal attire. The sculpture is mounted on a marble base.

The couple is depicted in a graceful dancing pose: the man holds the woman by the waist with his right arm while leading her with his left hand.
They gaze at each other with smiling, affectionate expressions.
The scene conveys romance, elegance, and a sense of refined movement—possibly a ballroom or folkloric dance.

The woman wears a richly pleated dress with multiple horizontal ruffled tiers, each decorated with fine ornamental patterns.
The man is dressed in an elaborately detailed suit, including a vest with floral embroidery, high-waisted trousers, a sash, and a bow tie or cravat.
Both figures are sculpted with great attention to detail—from hair curls to fabric folds.

Bronze, with a warm classical patina (dark brown with golden highlights).
The base is made of polished marble in beige-yellow tones with veining.

Inscribed on the base: "J. Demarez", likely referring to the French artist Joseph Demarez.
Demarez was known for figurative bronze sculptures, often portraying romantic or folkloric themes.
Active in the late 19th to early 20th century.

Style: Academic realism with a romantic touch.
Period: Likely around 1900–1930, within the Belle Époque or early Art Deco period.
