Product description
Artemis, Greek goddess of the hunt, wild nature, and protector of animals, is represented here in a resolutely modernist interpretation, very far removed from traditional antique statuary. The goddess is recognizable by her emblematic attribute, the bow, which she holds in a sweeping gesture. Her body stretches into a slender, almost hieratic silhouette, while the face and limbs are deliberately simplified. The artist does not seek realism but line, movement, and the power of the symbol. This way of reinterpreting the great figures of Antiquity is particularly characteristic of the decorative arts of the second half of the 20th century. Archaizing and almost primitive forms meet here a modernist aesthetic that gives this small sculpture a lot of personality. Crafted in bronze, the statuette possesses a beautiful material quality. Its deep and irregular verdigris patina reveals in places the warm, golden tones of the metal. These contrasts emphasize the volumes and give a slightly different reading of the sculpture from each viewing angle. At approximately 13.5 cm in height, Artemis remains a small-format piece but possesses a surprising presence. On a console, among some antique books, in a library, or paired with brutalist and modernist objects, it immediately becomes a captivating focal point in any decor. A singular evocation of Greek mythology, viewed through the free and graphic gaze of the 20th century. Height approximately 13.5 cm.
