Postmodern Bust of a Seductive Josephine Baker with Eccentric Decoration

About the Item

This black bust most probably depicts Josephine Baker, the great French American-born performer. This woman seems to have just stepped out of the Folies Bergères where she once again caused a sensation. This bust is made of resin and probably dates from the 1980's, considering the pattern of her head cover in the typical black and white blocks of that era.
