About the Item

Argy-Rousseau's exquisite Farniente ("Youth") is a stunning "pillow vase" with a flared mouth, seamlessly blending historical and artistic influences. The vase's body is adorned with a backdrop of stylized Japanese chrysanthemum petals, intricately crafted in mottled amethyst pâte de verre, accented by cartouches of white and translucent cameo glass. One side features a graceful female figure gently stroking her ankle, while the other depicts a kneeling woman with outstretched arms in a serene pose. Item #: YG-21712 Artist: Gabriel Argy-Rousseau Country: France Circa: 1932 Dimensions: 5.75" height. Materials: Pâte-de-verre Glass Signed: incised G. Argy-Rousseau, France Literature: Similar vase pictured in cf. J. Bloch-Dermont, Les Pâte De Verre G. Argy-Rousseau Catalogue Raisonné, Paris, 1990, p. 222, no. 32.03 for another vase of this model. Macklowe Gallery Curator's Notes: Having already studied Greek art at Sèvres, and always having been exposed to it in his family, Argy-Rousseau considered the Greek style his true passion and a permanent influence in his work throughout his career.
