Small Antique Statuette In Bronze With Green Patina Stylized Female Figure -

Small antique bronze statuette with green patina
Stylized female figure - probable antiquity

Charming small bronze statuette with archaeological patina, depicting a stylized female figure, standing, with schematic forms and deliberately simplified modeling.

The piece features a beautiful green and brown patina, with ancient concretions and oxidation, testifying to long burial or prolonged exposure over time. The slender silhouette, the arms drawn back towards the bust and the summary treatment of the face evoke ancient productions of the votive or popular type.

With regard to its style and workmanship, this statuette can be compared with productions from antiquity, possibly of Egyptian or Gallo-Roman inspiration, without a formal attribution being able to be asserted with certainty in the absence of an archaeological context.

This type of small figure was generally intended for votive, domestic or symbolic use.

Height: approx. 4 cm

Condition consistent with age: visible wear, missing parts and alterations, particularly on the head and extremities, contributing to the authentic character of the object.

A singular piece, charged with mystery, ideal for lovers of archaeology, cabinets of curiosities or small antique bronzes.
