Art Deco Nude Standing Lamp With Lumina Globe By Max Le Verrier

Max Le Verrier - "Clarté" | Art Deco light sculpture in patinated cast iron, circa 1930
Elegant and iconic light sculpture "Clarté", an emblematic work by Max Le Verrier, a major figure in French decorative sculpture of the Art Deco period.This remarkable composition depicts a stylized nude female figure, with pure, sensual modeling, in a posture of balance and élan, supporting at arm's length a luminous sphere in cracked frosted glass, evoking the purity and symbolism of light.Crafted in cast iron with a superb shaded antique-green patina, the sculpture rests on a circular base in veined black marble (Portor marble), bringing contrast and elegance to the whole.The treatment of the lines, the finesse of the proportions and the sobriety of the decoration perfectly reflect the refined, modernist aesthetic of the Art Deco movement.
