Biscuit Sculpture "falconet"

An elegant French biscuit sculpture from the late 19th century, signed "Falconet," depicting a young, nude female figure captured in a moment of intimate naturalness. The girl, in a graceful, slightly bent pose, holds a soft drapery that flows down her leg, creating a refined contrast between the smoothness of her skin and the fluid movement of the drape.
Crafted in biscuit—unglazed porcelain with a distinctive matte, velvety finish—the work stands out for its pure white color and the quality of its modeling, which highlights meticulous attention to anatomical details, the delicate lines of the face, and the naturalistic rendering of the fabrics. The subject, in neoclassical style, recalls 18th-century aesthetics reinterpreted with 19th-century academic sensibilities.
The "Falconet" signature harks back to the celebrated French sculptural tradition, lending the composition an aura of prestige and collectibility. Ideal as a charming decorative element for classic or eclectic settings, this sculpture represents a refined example of late 19th-century French artistic production.
A work of great elegance, capable of enhancing any collection of artistic porcelain or period decorative sculptures.
