Art Deco patinated and silvered bronze figure of a nude, by Armand Lémo
About the Item
An original French Art Deco bronze sculpture of a nude dancer with a veil by Armand Lemo 1881-1936
An exceptional and rare French Art Deco statue showcasing a polychrome figure of a gracefully draped female nude. The piece boasts a captivating patina in silverplating and transparent golden brown. After meticulously cleaning the darkened patina, a stunning silver finish was unveiled. The woman exudes elegance as she stands in a dancer's pose, her body delicately poised on tiptoes. With her arms outstretched, she holds a draped cloak behind her, skillfully creating the illusion of weighted fabric with tassels adorning both sides. The drapery not only serves as a visual element that forms a U-shaped backdrop, but also holds a conceptual significance, acting as a shield. In the style of Josephine Baker or Louie Fuller's dance, the body becomes mostly hidden within the depths and performance of the fabric.
A braided bun adorns her hair, presenting a scene of innocence that contrasts with the sensuality of the figures pose.
Resting on its original verde green veined marble base, this sculptural artwork finds its rightful place in the realm of artistic excellence.

It is purported that Lemo is a pseudonym for Robert Lemoine.
His work was edited by Edmond Etling and he also worked with Reveyrolis in Paris, France. Lemo exhibited at the Salons des Artistes Français in the twenties.

- Monumental Important Art Deco Silver & Gilt Bronze Goddess G. LavaroffBy Georges LavroffLocated in New York City, NYAn exceptionally large and rare French Art Deco original bronze sculpture circa 1927 by a well known artist Georges Lavaroff (1895-1991) It's quite uncommon to find this very large size and notably featuring the silver and parcel gilt finish. The artwork features a majestic female nude, adorned with a stylized cloak in alternating stripes of gold and silver, which showcases a pyramid shape. The Egyptian goddess is depicted as an undraped figure with arms outstretched above her head, holding a crescent moon. She wears a north star headdress that adds to her regal appearance. The cloak is embellished with stars and a comet, and the female figure rests on a bed of stylized clouds. The sculpture is presented on its original black and gold marble base. All of these attributes add to the uniqueness and value of the artwork, making it even more remarkable and sought after by collectors and art enthusiasts. Water bottle shown for scale.
