Striking French Art Deco Sculpture

This beautiful French Art Deco cast bronze sculpture stands at almost 70cm tall on an elegant black marble base. Signed by artist Jean-Pierre Morante (1882-1960) the dancing girl with her dynamic pose and gorgeous feathered headpiece, exquisitely depicted, captures the essence of the dynamic Art Deco aesthetic. The bronze sculpture has a finely modelled face and a wonderfully evocative stance, inspired by Giambologna's iconic statue of the god Mercury from the Italian Renaissance. Enchanting and a real centerpiece for any room, this would make a brilliant Christmas present for an art lover.
