Woman with a Lantern by Marine de Soos - Mother and child bronze sculpture

21st century

About the Item

This work represents a a pregnant mother and child, two souls united by love. It is a celebration of family, tenderness and love. It could therefore be the ideal romantic gift to express your feelings to the mother of your children, or your love partner. Woman with a Lantern is a bronze sculpture by French contemporary artist Marine de Soos, dimensions are 21 × 11 × 9 cm (8.3 × 4.3 × 3.5 in). The sculpture is signed and numbered, it is part of a limited edition of 8 editions + 4 artist’s proofs, and comes with a certificate of authenticity. It is part of the "Figure" series, and it is made of bronze. This piece of figurative art shows a pregnant woman standing, only wearing a loincloth and a headscarf. She is looking at a child who is sitting at her feet and is looking back up at her while holding a lantern in her right hand. Real or imagined scenes serve as inspiration for the artist. Marine de Soos creates poetic sculptures in bronze, flooded with emotion. She relates true stories and conveys moments of pure joy, rehashed from souvenirs gathered from here and there : the position of a hand, a foot, the tilt of a head… Whatever the starting image an emotion is unequivocally connected : ” I can only work when I am feeling emotional” says the artist who admits not having “a vision of what [she is] going to create.” Her only guide… the emotion and, ultimately, an invitation to take a rare poetic journey which thrusts the viewer into a contemplative state.
