Product description
Inspired by the world of Edgar Degas's famous studies of dancers, this elegant patinated bronze sculpture depicts a young ballerina in a graceful and contemplative pose, her chin raised to the sky, her hands delicately clasped behind her back.
The work immediately captivates with its balanced composition and refined modeling. The slender figure, the proud bearing of the neck, the subtle tension of the legs, and the natural movement of the tutu perfectly capture Degas's fascination with the body in motion.
The quality of the casting reveals exquisite detail, evident in both the folds of the garment and the rendering of the anatomical forms. Its nuanced brown patina adds depth and warmth to the piece, while its black base elegantly accentuates the figure and enhances its decorative presence.
The sculpture bears a Degas signature, along with a foundry mark marked "Bronze Garanti Paris – JB Déposée" (Registered Bronze Paris – JB), and the serial number A7720, attesting to a high-quality contemporary decorative edition.
With its harmonious proportions (38 cm high and weighing 5.4 kg), this sculpture will find its place naturally on a desk, console table, bookcase, or in a refined interior that blends art, design, and distinctive pieces.
Dimensions: 38 × 18 × 13 cm
Weight: 5.4 kg
In good overall condition, with a beautiful, even patina and slight signs of wear consistent with its age.
More than just a decorative object, this dancer is an invitation to capture the suspended moment—that fraction of a second when movement becomes poetry.
