Bronze Putto With Tambourine, Signed A.moreau – Late 19th Century

The bronze sculpture by Auguste Moreau (1834-1917) represents a putto with a tambourine. The putto, a winged childlike figure, is depicted standing, holding a tambourine in its right hand. The sculpture rests on a circular Maurin marble base, which adds a touch of elegance and stability to the work. Auguste Moreau, a key figure in 19th-century French sculpture, had a unique talent for breathing life and emotion into metal. In this work, every detail counts: the delicate curls of hair, the mischievous expression on this cherub's face, the flowing drape of his tunic that seems to float in time with the music. It is a celebration of innocence and pure joy. *********Period: Late 19th centuryExcellent condition.
