About the Item

Clay Sculpture Abstract Swan, Black Graphite 1970s. Anonymous work from a French artist, unsigned. This black graphite-patinated clay sculpture, dating from the 1970s, is a stylized representation of a swan, characterized by its Cubist-inspired forms. The sculpture abstracts the natural elegance of a swan into a series of smooth, geometric shapes and curves. The head of the swan, with its curved beak and subtle eye indentation, gracefully extends from a body composed of rounded, almost muscular forms. The use of Cubist elements deconstructs the swan's anatomy, emphasizing the interplay of volume and voids, while the dark, metallic sheen adds a sense of weight and solidity to the piece. A great and unique piece to add in any interior decor ! Please note : Some very tiny chips are to be noticed, where the black patina is missing, revealing the red clay underneath (see photos).
