Bronze Sculpture “Woman with Carrier Pigeon” on Black Marble Column - Art Deco - H. 42,8 cm

A sculpture that holds the instant just before take-off and reaches entirely upwards.

The slender, rising silhouette is at its best against a quiet wall, for instance on a console or a pedestal in the entrance hall. It suits collectors of Art Deco nudes and makes a fitting gift to mark a new beginning.

At a glance

Craftsmanship

The bronze is cast by the lost-wax method and reworked by hand afterwards, giving each windswept strand of hair its own contour. An olive brown patina lends the skin a warm sheen. The figure is seated on a round black marble column above a square stepped base.

Care

A soft, dry cloth is enough, for the marble too. Polish, water and cleaners would only harm the patina.
