About the Item
Large Edouard Drouot, Siot-Decauville Fondeur Paris patinated bronze sculpture of a youth enjoying an oyster. The young boy stands on a rock formation, leaning forward to avoid the oyster juices on his body, with his left arm raised to his mouth holding the mollusk in its half shell. Clad in just a loin cloth, with his right hand jauntily perched on his hip, the youth is intent on enjoying the sea's bounty emblematic of life's pleasures.
Rare, wonderful subject in excellent condition with lovely original patina.
Interesting conversational centerpiece for a seafood feast raw bar!
