Elegantly depicting a turn-of-the-century swimmer with his polished mustache, neatly curled hair, and cap, this ceramic sculpture was made on a lathe, serving as a playful and poetic addition to a modern or eclectic decor. The white of the elongated neck and the delicate features of the face are painted by hand with red for the smile, black for hair, mustache, arched eyebrows, and closed eyes, and green for the base, also occurring on the headpiece, where it alternates with yellow stripes. Delicate and sophisticated, this is a work of art to display anywhere in the house.
