About the Item

This lovely bronze is the epitome of art nouveau movement. The stylized nature themes, flowers, movement, and a young girl who has butterfly wings and is holding a bird in her hand. The return to nature is what is a predominant theme of art nouveau. The young girl is artist signed F. Rosse and dated '93. Franz Rosse was German but unfortunately was short lived but produced many fine sculptures. I have sold several of his bronzes over the years. The factory patina is a luscious warm brown color and mounted on a tall handsome base. A real beauty for the art nouveau lover, or anyone with eyes.
