French Art Deco Figural Woman Silvered Bronze Statue
Sculptor / Artist: Joseph Gauthier
Circa 1920's, France

 

Figural Silvered Bronze statue of an almost nude, dancing woman, tip-toeing on one foot, 
holding three stylized roses in one hand, with the other arm outstretched. 
Wearing only a drape around her lower half, she is elegantly perched 
upon a two-tier black and grey marble base. She has a short, classic 1920's bob hairstyle.
Strategically signed on the underside of her foot. at base, 'Gauthier'.

Tall orientation makes this easy to place on a console, vanity, nightstand or side table.
Also nice in a collection of small figural statues.
