Important Bronze sculpture “The Departure”, signed V. Tournier – 19th cent
About the Item
An important bronze with a green patina, titled "The Departure" and signed on the base.
Victorien Tournier (1833-1910), a French sculptor specializing in neo-Gothic sculpture, is known for having decorated three emblematic sites in Paris: Notre-Dame, the Hôtel de Ville, and the Sacré-Coeur Basilica.
"The Departure" depicts an ancient warrior, marching barefoot across a mound of vegetation.
The man is lightly dressed, with a muscular torso, and an animal skin covers his crotch and part of his buttocks.
He is about to draw a sword.
His long hair flutters in the wind.
Determination is evident in his gaze: he is going into battle.
An ode to male beauty and virility, this work will charm its owner.
