"Vincent Bécquerel – Bronze Sculpture – Group Of Perched Birds "
Vincent Bécquerel – Bronze sculpture – Group of perched birds Magnificent animal sculpture in patinated bronze signed V. Bécquerel, representing a poetic scene of four birds perched on a stylized branch. The whole rests on a rectangular black marble base which highlights the slender elegance of the composition. In this work, Vincent Bécquerel (1895–1981) – a French sculptor renowned for his animal representations – delicately captures the moment of calm and complicity between these small birds. The attention paid to the modeling of the plumage and the graceful movement of the bodies reflects the great talent of this 20th-century artist, influenced by Art Deco and naturalism. The contrast between the lightness of the subject and the strength of the bronze makes it a timeless decorative piece, ideal for an animal collection or refined decoration. Dimensions: Total height: 27 cm Width: 38 cm Depth: 9.5 cm Signature: V. Bécquerel engraved on the base. Condition: Excellent condition, very beautiful nuanced brown patina. A superb example of 20th-century French expertise in animal art. Rare on the market.
