Sylvie Mangaud Figurative Sculptures

French, b. 1961
Sylvie Mangaud was born in 1961, in Paris. She lives and works in Paris. Sylvie Mangaud seems to sculpt the vibrancy that emanates from the female body in motion. Whether it is a gesture or an emotion, we fully understand the essence. Attitudes are accurately, sometimes slightly ironic, like self-mockery. Her sculptures are close to the sketch, their shadows play with them and tell a poetic double. Her nudes have no definite face, just a head wear, they are all women, all at once playful, languorous, seductive, pensive ... It is the crossroads of her studies that led her naturally to sculpture. Originally, a training of photographer allows her to know how to seize the movement, the emotion, and immortalize the moment. At the same time, she is studying morphopsychology, which will enable her to observe and restore the subtleties of the female body. Nudes and animals immediately become his favorite territory without respecting the proportions that will define her style. Elephants advance with a sure and quiet step. Baboons fly from one branch to another. Herons are about to leave the nest. Cheetahs roam ... Their momentum and their intentions are palpable. They all seem caught on the run, at a standstill. They heard the sound of the dark room closing on them. The bronze material takes under the fingers of the artist a lightness, which makes the sculptures alive, one could almost feel their pulse.

Seated Mercury Life-Size Bronze Sculpture, Italian, Late 19th Century

Located in Palm Beach, FL

Seated Mercury (Hermes) — Grand Tour Life-Size Bronze Italian School (possibly Naples) Italy, Late 19th–Early 20th Century This commanding life-size Grand Tour bronze depicts Mercury (Hermes) seated in quiet repose upon a rock, rendered with classical authority and exceptional refinement. The youthful god’s finely modeled anatomy, serene, introspective expression, and distinctive winged sandals draw directly from the celebrated ancient prototype, creating a sculpture of enduring presence and balance. Fully restored and ready to place, the bronze presents beautifully for interior display or garden installation, where its patinated surface responds richly to natural light. The composition derives from the renowned Seated Mercury discovered on August 3, 1758, in the peristyle garden of the Villa dei Papiri at Herculaneum. The ancient original—now housed in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli—became a touchstone of classical taste and a must-see for Grand Tour travelers of the 18th and 19th centuries, admired for its harmony, restraint, and technical mastery. Cast in richly toned bronze and finished with a nuanced patina, this example exemplifies the Neapolitan tradition of Grand Tour bronzes, prized for archaeological fidelity and sculptural finesse. Its impressive scale and poised silhouette make it a significant focal point in both modern and classical settings—an object that bridges antiquity and the cultivated collecting culture of the Grand Tour.
