Late 19th Century Romantic French Black Patina Bronze Sculpture of a Hunter Boy

About the Item

Late 19th century Romantic french black patina bronze sculpture of a hunter boy with riffle By: unknown Material: bronze, copper, metal Technique: cast, molded, patinated, polished, metalwork Dimensions: 2 in x 3 in x 7 in Date: late 19th century Style: Romanticism, Naturalism, Realism, Belle Époque Place of origin: France This late 19th century french bronze sculpture depicts a ragged young boy standing atop a square base. Cast in polished black patinated bronze with copper detailing, the boy is dressed in a tattered tunic and a hat. He holds a long rifle or musket behind his back, resting his arms casually over the barrel and stock. The ragged attire and weary posture give the figure a melancholy yet innocent air. There is a sense of playfulness and wonder in the tilt of his head and the faraway look in his eyes. The sculpture captures the Romantic era's fascination with the idealized innocence of childhood, while also portraying the simple naturalism of a young hunter at play. Simplicity and emotion come together in this small but evocative bronze that explores youth, imagination and the gentle melancholy of the human condition.
