About the Item

An impressive marble sculpture depicting a Nymph and Child, crafted in the celebrated 18th-century Rococo style. Signed "Clodion," this piece reflects the charm and finesse that mark the works of the renowned French sculptor, Claude Michel (1738–1814), widely known as Clodion. Renowned for his Rococo terracottas, Clodion’s work often featured lively mythological subjects such as nymphs, satyrs, and putti. This marble piece beautifully embodies that legacy, with intricate detailing and a captivating sense of movement that brings the Rococo’s whimsical, elegant essence to life. Both a remarkable statement piece and homage to Clodion’s artistry, it is perfect for collectors of fine 19th-century French sculpture.
