Auguste Moreau köre

A classicizing style bronze bust, 67 cm tall, depicts a young girl wearing a headscarf and a dress with light drapery over her shoulder. The finely crafted facial features lend a sensitive, slightly melancholic expression to the figure, which follows the traditions of academic sculpture. The greenish patina creates an antique effect, while the black marble base emphasizes the elegance of the statue. Although the work is unsigned, its composition and execution can be associated with French and Italian sculptors active around the turn of the 19th to 20th centuries, and it can be related to the portrait bronzes created by Auguste Moreau, Émile Picault, or Mathurin Moreau. It embodies a popular theme of the era, focusing on the idealized representation of female beauty. Due to its quality craftsmanship and decorative appearance, the statue is considered valuable from both a collector's and an interior design perspective.
