About the Item

Experience the timeless beauty of Affortunato Gory's "Baigneuse," a captivating bronze sculpture that epitomizes the elegance and grace of the Art Deco era. This exquisite piece depicts a female figure, crouching in a moment of contemplation, her form exuding a sense of serenity and poise. Signed by the artist and inscribed with "Paris" on the back, it bears the mark of Gory's mastery and craftsmanship. Affortunato Gory, a French-Italian artist born in Florence in 1895, honed his skills under the tutelage of renowned sculptors such as Augusto Rivalta and Victorien-Antoine Bastet. Specializing in figurative sculpture, Gory seamlessly blended materials like bronze, ivory, and marble to create works of art that transcend time.
