19th Century Bronze by Moreau Sitting Figure of a Lady 'Student or Scholar'
About the Item
Of French origin, this mid to late 19th century bronze figure was made by the prolific French bronze making artist family "Moreau". The sculpture depicts a young female student or scholar with a pen in hand and tablet or book on her lap recording entries. She is beautifully clothed in a flowing dress which is pleated and folded, and cast in great detail. Her intricate cast hair and smooth textured face reflect a pleasing young lady seemingly enjoying the learning process.
In the lower side part of the casting is incised the signature inscription "Moreau" (See image).
Bronze is in excellent all original condition with no dents. It displays a warm and mellow patina which obviously reflects the aging process.

- "Lady Seated in Chair Reading" Money Box/ Still Bank by a. Biagioni, Circa 1925Located in Incline Village, NVPenny bank made by Italian Angelo Biagioni for the French market (see image with marking on the back of the chair), circa 1910. Biagioni, born in 1870, was a well known sculptor who crafted objects for resale to the European market. Money boxes (or still banks as they are called in America) were one of the more unique and more difficult items to find by this artist as most objects were basic uni-dimensional sculptered pieces. What makes it more rare is the unfortunate requirement to break and smash the bank open to get the coins out, as there was no mechanism to remove the money. The subject matter of the bank is that of a nicely dressed older lady seated in a chair reading a book. The bank is in all original condition and paint with no restoration or touch-up of any kind. This is a nice addition to any bank or toy collection, or simply to have as a "stand alone" unique item. Dimensions : 4 1/4" deep x 3 3/8" wide x 8 5/8" high. Note: After 40 plus years of dealing and collecting toys and banks, I am justly qualified to guarantee and present the authenticity of antique and vintage still banks...Category
