Depicting a graceful young woman with beautifully stylized features, the sculpture embodies the timeless elegance, balance, and modern refinement that define the finest French decorative arts of the Art Deco era. Signed "Guéro" on the reverse, it is an authentic work that will appeal to collectors seeking rare and original French sculptures. Expertly modeled in terracotta, the bust reveals the artist’s sensitivity to form through its flowing lines, delicate facial expression, and harmonious proportions. The warm natural color and finely textured surface enhance its sculptural presence, making it equally suitable for a sophisticated interior or an important Art Deco collection. Measuring 14.4 inches high (36.5 cm), 12.2 inches wide (31 cm), and 7.1 inches deep (18 cm), this sculpture offers an ideal display size for a console, pedestal, library, or mantel.

From the 1912 Vanderbilt Hotel in New York City, Manhattan, located on Park Ave. In the 20th century, the hotel business declined, and the Vanderbilt Hotel suffered foreclosure in 1935 during the Great Depression. In 1966, an investment group purchased the 54-year old structure with intentions of renovating it into a dual function office and apartment building. The top 18 floors would become studio and one-bedroom apartments while the lower floors would be offices and commercial space. “New aluminum-and-glass curtain walls are being erected to sheath the office floors, while the masonry façade of the hotel will be retained on the upper stories,” said one article. But that was just the beginning of the brutality. Penthouse apartments were being constructed on the roof, but the view was obstructed by the terracotta parapet and its massive sculptures. In June 1966 eighteen of the heads were removed, resulting in a gash in the roofline. “The heavy pieces were removed over a period of several days by a 10-man crew of the Drachman Demolition Company,” said The New York Times, “which used jack...
