Affortunato Gory Figurative Sculptures
French, Italian, 1895-1925
Affortunato Gory (Gori) was a French-Italian artist who specialized in Art Deco figurative sculpture, often combining materials such as bronze, ivory, and marble to dazzling effect.
Born in 1895 in Florence, Italy, Gory emigrated to France after studying with noted sculptor Augusto Rivalta at the Accademia di Belle Arti in his home city. He continued to practice and learn from the French artist Victorien-Antoine Bastet after his move to Paris, and exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français on multiple occasions. Little else is known about the artist, who died in 1925.to

Alabaster Sculpture "Orpheus" by Affortunato Gory
By Affortunato Gory
Located in Paris, FR
Alabaster sculpture featuring Orpheus looking for his wife, Eurydice, at the gates of the kingdom of Hades. He is represented here as a young athlete with a melancholy expression, playing a lyre.
