Early 20th Century Art Déco French Patinated Bronze Sculpture of an Angel Fish

About the Item

Early 20th century Art Déco french patinated bronze sculpture of an angel fish By: unknown Material: bronze, copper, metal Technique: cast, patinated, molded, metalwork Dimensions: 2.5 in x 5.5 in x 9.5 in Date: early 20th century Style: Art Déco Place of origin: France This early 20th century french patinated bronze sculpture depicts the detailed figure of an angelfish swimming. Executed using the casting technique, the work shows the fish's flowing fins and scales with precision. The patina lends a subtle aged quality. Though the artist is unknown, the sculpture embodies key aspects of the Art Déco style which rose to prominence in 1920s Europe. Sleek lines and simplified forms characterize this modernist movement. Déco drew inspiration from the machine age, reacting against the sinuous Art Nouveau aesthetic. As with other bronze sculptures of the era, this french piece balances stylized elegance with realism in its portrayal of an aquatic subject.
