Large Plaster Bust - Bacchante - Signed - Early 20th Century, Belgium

About the Item

Large patinated plaster bust - Bacchante with bunches of grapes - Signed (Frans... ) - Flanders or Belgium - Early 20th century Spectacular and expressive, this large patinated plaster bust represents a Bacchante, a figure associated with the cult of Dionysus/Bacchus, her head tilted and adorned with bunches of grapes.

Acquired in Belgium, this piece bears a hollow signature that is difficult to read, the first name Frans being nevertheless clearly identifiable, pointing to a Belgian or Flemish sculptor active towards the beginning of the 20th century.
