Alabaster Sculpture Of A Girl Relaxing In Her Toad Chair
Superb and delicate signature alabaster sculpture to identify representing a child sitting on a cushion in a Toad armchair with her toys. Her face, imbued with gentleness and liveliness, reveals all the sensitivity of the sculptor. Alabaster, a material prized for its luminous transparencies and its translucency effects, lends itself admirably here to the virtuosity of the sculptor. The light drapes, the armchair decorated with its trimmings, the suppleness of the cushion and the finesse of the features testify to an execution of extreme delicacy. Through the subtle play of light on the stone, the child seems to come to life, giving the scene a poetic realism typical of the Belle Époque. Its terrace is in Serpentine. It is a green stone that looks a little like reptile skin, hence its name "serpentine". It is a beautiful olive green color, but can be enhanced with many other shades from light green to brown, including gray and beige, which sometimes makes it difficult to identify for a neophyte. A stone of protection and comfort, it has many benefits on the physical and mental level. Its dimensions are: Height 34 cm, Width 27 cm and Depth 30 cm. Delivery in France.
