Large Nude Bathing Porcelain Cookie Sèvres By Raphaël Nannini (1852-1925)

Bather sitting on a rock, probably coming out of the water, slightly curled up to warm up, barely covered with a fabric on his chest which hardly hides its forms. The matt whiteness of porcelain gives a lot of sensuality to the piece whose presence is also reinforced by its height of 38 cm. The piece has the hollow mark of Sèvres and the signature of the sculptor NANNINI Raphaël (1852-1925) on the back and under the base an S at the tip and n ° 78. The sculpture is in good condition, to note that even if it is invisible it was formerly re-glued (we took it into account to fix a reduced price compared to the price charged for a piece of this quality). The sculptor Raphaël NANNINI was born in Florence (Italy) in 1852. He practices his profession in his hometown and performs bronze and ivory sculptures for French companies in the early twentieth century. He also exhibited several times at the Paris salon.
