20th Century Reclining Woman with Sphinx Sculpture Alabaster
About the Item
20th Century
Reclining woman with Sphinx
Alabaster, 43 x 60 x 25 cm
The sculpture depicts a young and charming odalisque lying languidly on a refined sheet. The face with delicate features is shown in profile, the hair is parted in the center and gathered in an elegant hairstyle. The sensual pose highlights the soft shapes of her body, shown almost entirely in her nakedness, with the exception of her breasts, emphasized by a refined bra embellished with golden inserts, and her hips, delicately encircled by a thin veil knotted at the front. The young woman's right arm follows the sinuous lines of the body, while the left rests on the statue of a small sphinx represented with female features, a lion's body and a human head. The figure of the odalisque is highlighted by the stepped podium on which it rests comfortably and is embellished by some of the jewels: under the young woman's fine hair, round golden earrings shine. The artist's skill in the processing of the material is striking, especially in the rendering of the very thin and transparent slightly crinkled veils.
