"Joé Descomps (1869-1950) Chriselephantine Sculpture, Young Naked Woman In A Coat, 1925 Art Deco"
Here is an exceptional piece, an elephantine sculpture by Joé Descomps, an iconic artist of French Art Deco. Emmanuel-Jules-Joseph Descomps, better known as Joé Descomps or Descomps-Cormier, left his mark on art history with his bold and refined creations, particularly between the 1920s and 1925, the period in which this work was created. This sculpture is a captivating representation of feminine beauty, in which the artist masterfully combined bronze and ivory. The nude figure is skillfully dressed in an oversized, loosely draped coat, which suggests a silhouette that is both graceful and seductive. The bronze, with a deep and subtle green patina, reveals details chiseled with remarkable precision, testifying to the artist's exceptional craftsmanship. The work rests on an onyx base, a noble material that adds a touch of luxury and contrast to the whole. Joé Descomps's signature, engraved on the bronze base, attests to its authenticity and historical value. A noteworthy detail: one foot has been reattached, but this restoration is almost invisible and in no way alters the beauty or value of the piece, which is in a very beautiful state of preservation. This sculpture perfectly embodies the spirit of Art Deco, an artistic movement that revolutionized design and aesthetics in the early 20th century. It is ideal for collectors passionate about art or for those who wish to add a touch of timeless elegance to their interior.
