French Modernist Abstract Bronze Sculpture of a Woman Carrying a Vessel, c. 1960

About the Item

This remarkable patinated-bronze sculpture attracts the viewer's eye with its outstanding graceful lines and special elegant proportions. The figure of a woman carrying a vessel on her shoulder, distinguished by a majestic tread, a slender figure in tight-fitting clothes and a proud posture, is an unusual symbiosis of African ritual tribal sculpture and French mid-century abstract modernism.
