About the Item

Elegant decorative statuette from the French Restoration period, depicting a Classical young man finely sculpted in bronze and draped in generously pleated garments that partially reveal his body. The youthful face and short hair, rendered with great precision, reflect the high level of craftsmanship characteristic of bronze work from this era. The young man carries an amphora and stands atop a cylindrical column in Blue Turquin marble, richly adorned with interlinked decorative chains and embellished with gilt-bronze mounts. The beautiful contrast between the deep blue marble and the warmth of the gilt bronze enhances the elegance and presence of this neoclassical piece. A high-quality decorative work, ideal for enriching a refined interior or a collection of objects from the Restoration period.

Young woman with jug, Carrara marble, signed Bonnal, early 20th century
Located in NICE, FR
Charming sculpture of a young woman carrying a jug, signed by Bonnal on the back and inspired by “Rebecca at the Well” by 19th-century Italian School artist Guglielmo Pugi. The sculpture in fine white Carrara marble, created between the end of the 19ᵉ century and the beginning of the 20ᵉ century, depicts a pensive, lascivious young woman dressed in the fashion of the turn of the century: she wears a turban from which escapes curls of hair and a bracelet characteristic of the period; the cut of her dress is also very elaborate for a simple peasant woman. The finely embroidered motifs on the dress and turban are further evidence of the sculptor's mastery. A delicate, feminine piece that will look great in a hallway or on a dressing table, and will make a lovely gift for an aesthete woman. Guglielmo Pugi lived in Florence, where he ran a sculpture workshop with his two sons. Their workshop, “Guglielmo Pugi e Figli”, was mainly dedicated to exports, particularly to the United States. Guglielmo Pugi's work, emblematic of the Art Nouveau style, is characterized by direct carving in alabaster and Carrara marble (often white or veined). Some of his sculptures are now housed in Volterra's Historical Alabaster Museum. Many of his works were shown at major international exhibitions, such as the 1901 Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo and the 1904 Exposition...
