A monumental French vintage bust of an anonymous young woman in larger-than-life scale, her unforgettable likeness rendered in plaster that has been pigmented and faux-finished to appear as bronze. The sculptor’s control with the medium is evident throughout every feature, presenting a bold realism of her physical characteristics with empathic observation that leaves the viewer to project their own ideas of who she was beyond the stoic features captured here. Regarding the condition: there are a number of chips that reveal the white plaster underneath and the work has a slight wobble (professional mounting recommended). Please view the detailed images as they are an essential part of the description.
