小像, Narcisse - 27 cm - Gilt bronze

sStatuette en bronze représentant Narcisse (parfois identifié comme un jeune Dionysos) dans une pose pensive, inspirée des célèbres modèles hellénistiques découverts lors des fouilles de Pompéi. ​Cette pièce se distingue par une fonte au sable typique du XIXe siècle. Cette technique artisanale confère au métal un aspect granuleux et vibrant qui accroche magnifiquement la lumière. Sa patine verte nuancée dite "archéologique", riche en concrétions naturelles, témoigne d'une oxydation ancienne et garantit le caractère authentique de cet objet d'art du "Grand Tour". Matériau : Bronze massif (alliage cuivreux lourd). ​Technique : Fonte au sable avec patine à l'antique. ​Hauteur : 27 cm. ​Poids : 1,300 kg. ​État : Très bon état de conservation, patine d'origine préservée, structure saine. Stunning bronze statuette depicting Narcissus (or a young Dionysus) in a contemplative pose, inspired by the classical masterpieces discovered in the ruins of Pompeii. ​The piece is characterized by a 19th-century sand-cast technique, which gives the bronze its distinctive, vibrant, and grainy texture. The "archaeological" green patina, featuring natural mineral deposits and oxidation, provides an authentic and timeless appeal, highly sought after by collectors of 19th-century Grand Tour bronzes. ​Material: Solid bronze (heavy copper alloy). ​Technique: Sand-cast with antique-style patina. ​Height: 27 cm. ​Weight: 1.300 kg. Condition: Excellent original condition, no repairs, healthy structure.
