Sculpture Of A Bird On A Branch In Bronze And Marble Base Signed Molins Circa 1930

Beautiful bronze sculpture, finely chased, representing an exotic bird perched on a sinuous branch. The bird has a double patina: brown and gold. The branch has a brown patina. The piece rests on a 3-level black marble pyramidal base. This work is signed in engraving on the terrace by “Molins” (Charles Henri Molins :1893-1958)
The stylized yet expressive subject evokes the world of birds of paradise, symbols of beauty and distinction. The raised crest and open beak suggest a song or a cry, lending a breath of life to the whole. The contrast between the materials (bronze with 3 patinas, smooth marble) and the elevated composition make this work a powerful decorative piece, ideal for an Art Deco interior or a collector of animal bronzes.

^{Charles Henri Molins (1893-1958) was a French sculptor active in Paris during the height of the Art Deco era. His work is distinguished by refined sculptures of dancers, sportswomen and elegant female figures, often accompanied by animals such as greyhounds or birds. His creations, characterized by dynamic stylization and meticulous attention to detail, reflect the aesthetics of the interwar period. Although little biographical information is available, his works testify to his talent and influence in the field of decorative sculpture, which is why his works continue to be highly prized.}

Condition : Very good condition. One little piece of the corner of the terrace is missing.
