Art Nouveau Alabaster Sculpture By E. Battiglia Depicting A Young Schoolgirl, Late 19th Century

Artist: Eugénio Battiglia

Art Nouveau alabaster sculpture signed E. Battiglia depicting a young schoolgirl from the late 19th century

Created by the Italian sculptor Eugénio Battiglia of Florence in the late 19th century, this allegorical sculpture of learning is symbolized by a young girl in a schoolgirl’s uniform holding a satchel.

Her serious expression belies her mischievous face. One can sense the emerging power of Art Nouveau in this sculpture, which seems to transcend the neoclassical style of the late 19th century and move toward Art Nouveau with a more organic form inspired by the fluid curves of nature.

Crafted from alabaster, it is in excellent overall condition. Sculptures by this artist, especially in this material, are rare; the hard and sturdy alabaster shines with its immaculate white hue.

This signed sculpture will be ideal for you if you are a collector of late 19th-century Art Nouveau.
