About the Item

Tenderness becomes timeless in this exquisite Antique Bisque Figural "Le Nid" by Aristide-Onésime Croisy. Sculpted with an artist's devotion to grace and intimacy, the piece captures a deeply human moment. A young woman and child nestled into the comforting folds of a tufted armchair, serenely entwined in slumber. Croisy's mastery of bisque porcelain gives the scene an ethereal softness, enhancing the emotion with every delicate fold, curve, and gesture. The title, "Le Nid" (The Nest), speaks not only to the visual composition but to the universal sense of warmth and sanctuary it conveys. Ideal for the collector of fine European sculpture or the romantic connoisseur of sentiment in form, this piece is both a masterwork of 19th-century craftsmanship and an enduring symbol of love and repose.
