B1702 - SOLD

This is a stunning antique French Art Nouveau plaster bust dating from about 1900. It would look superb, perhaps on a mantelpiece or on a sidetable.

The subject is a beautiful girl. She has wide spaced dreamy eyes and full lips upon which is a gentle smile. Her hair falls around her face and is pulled into a soft chignon at the back.

She sits on a fabulous base in an atmospheric shade of burgundy. Growing up the front of the base is a gorgeous grape vine with 3 bunches of grapes one of which wends it's way onto our beautiful lady's décollotage.

There is a metal plaque on the front of the base entitled 'AUTOMNE par Goyeau' and there is a signature to the side. The bottom of the base is covered with cardboard trimmed with a burgundy textile now worn with the passage of time.

We have left the bust as we found her. She is in good antique condition with just a little  distressing to the paint (please see photos).

She measures :- 41 cm (16.1 inches) high x 21 cm (8.25 inches) wide x 15 cm (6 inches) deep.

This is a gorgeous bust to add an authentic antique French finishing touch and another divine brocante find from La Belle Étoffe!
