André Vincent Becquerel Chryselephantine Group - Child With Horse And Dog Art Deco

André-Vincent BECQUEREL (1893-1981)

Etling Paris

A remarkable Art Deco chryselephantine group in patinated bronze and carved ivory, featuring a child riding a rocking horse, accompanied by a dog animating the scene.

The composition captivates with its subtle balance between modern stylization and naturalism: the child's face, finely carved in ivory, with delicate, expressive features, contrasts with the geometric treatment of the horse, whose warm brown shaded patina evokes waxed wood.

The dog, treated with sensitive realism in silvered bronze, brings a lively dynamic to the whole, reinforcing the narrative and movement.

Very fine quality chasing and original patina, with harmonious nuances.

The work rests on an elegant black veined Portor marble base.

Print signed "Becquerel", published by Etling Paris.

A work emblematic of the Art Deco period, combining refinement of materials and modernity of lines.
