Poesie Marble Sculpture
An emerging head and bust of a beautiful young woman with a crown of laurel leaves, from a heavy slab of white and beige marble. An epigram is carved in the marble which is in Latin or Italian. Some of the gold highlighting is worn away, making it difficult to decipher. The title of the piece is Poesie. The style is art nouveau. Unsigned. One of the wreath leaves has a chip, otherwise the noble purity of the profiled young woman is in wonderful condition.
Circa: 1895-1915
Size: 15x13
