About the Item
This magnificent 19th-century French bronze sculpture is signed by the renowned artist Louis-Félix Ferville-Suan (1847–1925) and dated 1880, representing a prime example of the naturalistic style that defined his work. Depicting a graceful lady in flowing drapery holding a hawk perched elegantly upon her raised arm, the piece captures both movement and poise with remarkable detail. The finely cast bronze surface is finished in a rich golden patina, enhancing the lifelike textures of the fabric, hair, and bird.
Ferville-Suan, a celebrated pupil of François Jouffroy and a member of the Société des Artistes Français, was acclaimed for his ability to blend allegory and realism. This work exemplifies his mastery, with a harmonious balance between strength and elegance. Standing on an ornate base with subtle decorative motifs, this bronze resonates with themes of nobility, grace, and the natural world.
Perfect for a collector of fine 19th-century French sculpture, this signed and dated bronze makes a striking statement in a formal library, gallery, or grand entryway. A rare opportunity to acquire an authentic Ferville-Suan bronze from the golden age of French sculpture.
