Italian school of the early 20th century. "Female nude", Florence. White marble. Signed "P. Conti"
Italian school of the early 20th century.
"Female nude", Florence.
White marble.
Signed "P. Conti" and localised.
Marbled marble base.
Size: 59 cm (sculpture) + 8 cm (pedestal).
Marble sculpture representing a naked young woman, with a dreamy countenance and curly hair. Her tilted head and slightly bent right knee give the figure a subtle movement. The anatomical model, despite its classical inspiration, is realistic and carnal, which has been achieved with commendable technical mastery. The delicately turned legs and thighs give the limbs flexibility.
