About the Item

This French Cubist plaster sculpture from around 1960 beautifully depicts a loving couple, embodying the abstract and fragmented style characteristic of Cubism. The figures are rendered in geometric forms, with interlocking planes and angles that convey a sense of unity and harmony between the two. The sculpture captures the essence of intimacy and connection through its stylized representation, eschewing realistic detail for a more emotional and conceptual expression. The plaster medium allows for smooth, flowing lines and a monochromatic finish, enhancing the sculpture's focus on form and composition. This piece reflects mid-20th-century artistic exploration of human relationships and emotions through abstraction, making it a poignant and evocative work of art. A unique piece which is a great eye-catcher for your antique, modern, space age or mid-century interior. If you have any more questions we are very happy to help and send you more details, photos, videos, a shipping quote or information. All pieces are looked after in our own restoration workshop. We also can do new upholstery cover or other special requests. Please ask.
