Alabaster & Marble Bust of Young Woman

About the Item

This lovely quality alabaster figure is of a young woman with beautifully sculpted hair, features and clothing folds. The head appears to have been carved separately from the body and there is a joint around the neckline of the dress, although there is no movement between the pieces. She has an Art Nouveau style about her and is wearing a headband with a central flower and a dress folding down to square off the neckline. This unsigned piece is very heavy and displays skilled artistry, now having the character of age from some wear and discolouration which may indicate that she has been outside or perhaps in a summerhouse with surrounding plants.
