Nymph at the stream marble sculpture, 20th century

About the Item

This delicately carved marble is a characteristic style of work of Mathurin Moreau, a leading French sculptor who specialised in the representation of nymphs and female allegories. This replica is in superb condition, and perfect for home design and decoration. Born in Dijon, Moreau came from a distinguished family of artists. He initially studied under his father, Jean Baptiste, before joining the École des beaux arts in Paris and entering an apprenticeship with Jules Ramey. In 1842 he was awarded the Second Prix de Rome, which was followed by numerous honours and awards throughout his career, including a first class medal at the Salon of 1859 and a gold medal at the World Exhibition in 1889.
