About the Item

Le Garde Du Harem, "The Harem Guard" A Monumental Orientalist Patinated Bronze Sculpture by Georges Charles Coudray (French, 1862-1932) Le Garde Du Harem, "The Harem Guard Carrying," is a monumental French patinated bronze Orientalist sculpture by renowned artist Georges Charles Coudray (French, 1862-1932). Towering at 36 inches in height, this masterful work captures the formidable yet poised presence of the harem guard, skillfully rendered in intricate detail. The guard stands with a commanding expression, holding a scimitar that evokes both protection and power. Coudray's exceptional craftsmanship is evident in the deep patina and lifelike drapery, embodying the rich, exotic atmosphere of the Orientalist era.
