About the Item
An early 25" Art Deco bronze nude sculpture of a Flapper Dancer by Affortunato Gory. This is one of the most spectacular pieces we have been able to offer. The darkly gilded patina is smooth and flawless, highlighting all the delicate features of the subject. Note her lovely face, perfectly rendered hands, and feet (the details many sculptors do not execute so deftly). Her elaborate headdress has great texture, and the alabaster ball she holds aloft can also be easily removed for transport. Her graceful pose employs the principle of contrapposto in which the arrangement of the figure contrasts the lines of arms and shoulders and the balance of hips and legs. The substantial base is original to the piece and crafted in black marble.
Circa 1920
Artist: Affortunato Gory was a real sculptor, known for his Art Deco pieces. He lived from 1895 to 1925 and was recognized for his skill in creating elegant and detailed sculptures that captured the spirit of the Art Deco era. Subject: The sculpture is a depiction of a nude dancer, likely in a graceful and dynamic pose characteristic of Art Deco aesthetics. Details: The sculpture is noted for its attention to detail. The delicate features of the dancer, including her face, hands, and feet, have been meticulously rendered. This attention to detail sets the piece apart, as not all sculptors execute these aspects with such precision. The dancer's headdress is described as elaborate, with great texture, adding to the overall visual richness of the sculpture. The dancer's pose employs the principle of contrapposto, a technique commonly used in classical and Renaissance art. It involves a naturalistic arrangement of the figure where the body's weight is supported on one leg while the other leg is relaxed. This creates a sense of dynamic tension and balance. The sculpture is presented on a substantial base that is original to the piece. The base is made from a type of black marble, adding to the overall aesthetic and providing a stable foundation for the sculpture. Overall, the description paints a vivid picture of a remarkable Art Deco bronze nude sculpture by Affortunato Gory. The combination of the artist's skill, the detailed execution of the sculpture, the choice of materials, and the incorporation of Art Deco elements contribute to its value and significance as a work of art.

Affortunato Gory
Affortunato Gory (Gori) was a French-Italian artist who specialized in Art Deco figurative sculpture, often combining materials such as bronze, ivory, and marble to dazzling effect. Born in 1895 in Florence, Italy, Gory emigrated to France after studying with noted sculptor Augusto Rivalta at the Accademia di Belle Arti in his home city. He continued to practice and learn from the French artist Victorien-Antoine Bastet after his move to Paris, and exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français on multiple occasions. Little else is known about the artist, who died in 1925.
