Bronze Bust of a Child from the Late 19th Century signed Francois

About the Item

This exquisite bronze bust represents a child from the late 19th century, capturing the essence of the period's artistry and attention to detail. Crafted with remarkable precision, the bust exemplifies the fine workmanship typical of 19th-century European bronze sculpture. It reflects the growing interest in realism and the depiction of youth during this era, which was influenced by the Neoclassical and Romantic movements. The child’s facial expression, posture, and detailed features are all carefully rendered, embodying the emotional depth and naturalism characteristic of the time. The late 19th century saw a blending of classical influences with modern sensibilities, creating artworks that evoke both nostalgia and intimacy. This piece is a fine example of how sculptors in this period combined classical techniques with a more personal, evocative approach to subject matter. Perfect for collectors and art enthusiasts, this bust serves as a beautiful homage to the craftsmanship of the Belle Époque and the Realist and Romantic schools of sculpture, showcasing an era of transition in European art.
