About the Item

This Art Deco sculpture is by the iconic French sculptor Pierre Le Fagyays a.k.a. Fayral. This piece is signed by Fayral on the stone base and also has an inventory number (P2787) on the stone base and base of the sculpture it self. This is a rare opportunity to have an original and not a recast of a piece by Fayral. Note: Base dimension: 4.75" height x 11.50 width x 5.13 depth. Note: The piece is signed on the base and its difficult to read so we rubbed the piece with paper and pencil to show signature. See image 9 & 10 for signature> Note: Inventory number "P2787" by a collector on marble base and base of sculpture. About the sculptor: Fayral and Guerbe were two pseudonyms used by the famous Pierre Le Faguays. Fayral and Guerbe were both the family names for his mother and wife. Pierre Le Faguays was born in Nantes, France and became famous for the originality he gave his dancers, many of which were inspired by the statues of Tanagra. Like Chiparus, Faguays' sculptures did a great deal for perpetuating the 1920s version of the ideal female form - all lithe athleticism with nymph like physiques. He gained a medal of honor for his work in 1927. He was a best friend of Max Le Verrier and the Le Verrier foundry made most of - if not all of his pieces. Famous pieces by Fayral / Le Faguays include Odalisque, Offrande, Serenitie, The Escapade, Champagne Dancer and Veritie. For collectors original works by Faguays command high fees and his work really embodies the 1920s aesthetic.
