Carved Ivory Sculpture Of A Woman With Putto, France, Late 18th – Early 19th Century
Finely carved ivory sculpture depicting a semi-nude female figure draped in flowing fabric, lifting a putto in a graceful, ascending gesture. The figure’s twisted pose and dynamic movement are emphasized by the swirling drapery and delicately rendered wavy hair. The putto reaches out toward the woman with affection, creating a composition full of elegance and tenderness.
The group rests on a richly decorated round base with vegetal and rocaille motifs, also carved in ivory. The stylistic elements and exceptional craftsmanship suggest a French origin, likely from a Parisian workshop, dating to the late 18th or early 19th century.
