DEMETER H. Chiparus (1888-1950) Sculpture

About the Item

This sculpture is a work by **Demetre Chiparus**, a renowned Romanian sculptor from the Art Deco period. Chiparus is famous for his detailed bronze and ivory sculptures of dancers, often depicting them in elegant, dynamic poses. The style of the figure, with its elongated arms and celebratory stance, is characteristic of Chiparus's work, often inspired by ballet, theatre, and the emerging Art Deco style of the early 20th century. This piece features the mixed-medium technique known as **chryselephantine**, which combines bronze for the body and ivory for the exposed skin areas, such as the face and arms. The base is also characteristic of his work, often made from marble or onyx, adding to the luxurious feel of the sculpture. The signature "Chiparus" marks the piece as an authentic work from this prominent sculptor, and its value is enhanced by his recognition as one of the leading artists of the Art Deco movement. Chiparus’s sculptures are highly sought after by collectors, and this figure embodies the grace and elegance for which his work is admired.
