Bronze Bust By Davide Caladra
Bronze sculpture by Davide Calandra
The sculpture is a refined gilded bronze bust. The work depicts the intimate and melancholic face of a young woman. Her gaze is directed downward, a characteristic feature of Romantic or Symbolist female figures of the era. Her hair is wavy and full-bodied, parted down the middle. On the right side (left as seen by the viewer), a soft braid falls over her shoulder and across her chest, while at the back, her hair is partially gathered. The modeling of the surface reflects Calandra’s mature style, influenced by late Romanticism and hints of the Scapigliatura movement and early Art Nouveau. The facial features are smooth and delicate. Davide Calandra, Turin 1856–1915 Dimensions: bronze only 45 x 44 cm with marble base 55 cm
