For sale is a beautiful and thoughtful, expressionist female plaster bust from the first half of the 20th Century circa 1930-50.
- Large and heavy white plaster in a renaissance / classical form. A female bust with eyes closed in a calming manner. Her hair styled in a chignon, a knot at the nape of the neck.
- A hand sculptured bust in a form evocative of the 1930s. Austrian and German plaster sculptures by artists such as this were prominent in the pre-war European period.
- Her hair and light skin tone are the two subtle contrasting colours used.
- Some wear or marks to the plaster/paint in places (as shown in the comprehensive images) but remains very solid with no cracks, the patina providing a striking piece.
- The female bust is unsigned but very heavy, stable and the base has a baize covering.
- Some age-related marks and wear due to tactility but in great vintage condition.
- A lovely interior decorating sculpture from an era of simple classical style.
