About the Item
ABOUT SCULPTURE
This wonderful sculptural and portrait work was certainly created by a master sculptor, although not signed by the author. The face of this typical all-American boy, as if familiar to everyone, is distinguished by a special emotional intensity, expressed in the seriousness of his gaze and in tightly compressed lips. This is what makes this sculpture a real portrait, reflecting the internal psychological state of the model.

ABOUT THE SCULPTORE
Emmanuel Villdnis (French, 1858 – 1914) was born to Italian parents in France, in 1858. He moved with the family to Piedmont, Italy, in March 1861; after the proclamation of the Kingdom of Italy.
Known in Italy as Villani, he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts Albertina in Turin from 1871 to 1880 alongside master-sculptor Odoardo Tabacchi. When Villanis graduated, he exhibited his first works in cities across Italy, notably his bust ‘Alda’ in Milan, in 1881.
Villanis returned to France in 1885, living and working in the Montmartre district of Paris and didn’t leave Montmartre until his death on August 28th 1914.
Villanis specialised in female bronze busts...
