About the Item

A Fine Late 19th Century Terracotta Bust of a Young Maiden by Carrier Belleuse Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse A lovely scantily clad beautiful woman wearing a necklace, her long waivy hair under a laurel leaf crown, standing on a painted base. Signed A Carrier to the left side. Albert Ernest Carrier-Belleuse was a French sculptor best known for his Neoclassical, realist terra cotta sculptures frequently depicting women in historic roles. Born on June 12, 1824 in Anizy-le-Château, France, Carrier-Belleuse trained as a goldsmith’s apprentice before attending the École des Beaux-Arts and working for the medallist David d’Angers. Working between England, Brussels, and Paris, the artist founded the Parisian Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts, and is notable for employing celebrated Modernist Auguste Rodin as his apprentice. Before his death on June 4, 1887 in Sevres, France, Carrier-Belleuse was awarded the title of officer of the Legion of Honour.
