About the Item
This beautiful young woman is a fine example of the creations of the noted French sculptor, Emmanuel Villanis (1858-1914). You will find his works to be predominantly art nouveau woman of which a majority were busts. The foundries he incorporated did exceptional patina work, frequently done in polychrome, as this example shows. She is basically 2 colors of soft green with gilt highlights. This model is titled "Talisman" which translates basically to "lucky charm". The woman is holding what could possibly be those charms. Signed by the artist as well as the foundry. It's always a bonus to have a foundry seal. This is a good sized piece of sculpture, at 18.5" high. Certainly a great example of the artist's skill.

Emmanuel Villanis
Emmanuel Villanis (b. 1858 d. 1914). Originally from Lille, France and of Italian descent, the artist studied in Turin at the Accademia Albertina, under master sculptor Odoardo Tabacchi, before settling in Paris in 1885. A prolific producer of busts during his career, he enjoyed international acclaim for his work. He had a penchant for producing bronzes (particularly busts) of beautiful young women, mainly in the Art Nouveau style. During his lifetime he exhibited widely in Paris, Milan, Chicago, New York and Vienna, his bronzes are both beautiful and highly desirable.
