Superb Bronze Bust with Brown Patina, signed by Emmanuel Villanis (1858-1914), titled "Bohemian Girl" on the pedestal.
A French sculptor linked to the Art Nouveau movement, Villanis was known for his Bronze prints where the traditional Neoclassical style meets the elegant lines of Art Nouveau. A prolific creator of Busts throughout his career, his representations of the female body are Sensual and combine a game of Patina underlining the Finesse of the line.
Thought to be attractive, mysterious and daring, the Bohemian exerted a fascination on the Artist who created several Works materializing these free and seductive Women.
Currently, the Artist chooses to represent her wearing a scarf tied on her wavy hair. Head and eyes lowered, you can recognize her by her proud attitude and her Port Altier. Its delicate features and bare shoulders invite you to Voluptuousness. Jewels imagined in gold, medals around her neck and ring in the ear, enhance her raw charm.
Bewitching, this Grand Bronze by Emmanuel Villanis will dazzle you with its captivating beauty.
