About the Item

This S.Francesco bronze sculpture by Franco Asco depicts a draped standing figure gathered into itself in a gesture of intimacy and protection. The body is conceived as a single enveloping mass, from which the faces and hands emerge with quiet emotional intensity. The work conveys a strong sense of tenderness and inwardness, balancing sculptural solidity with a remarkable softness of expression. The flowing treatment of the drapery gives the piece a subtle monumentality, while its compact scale preserves an intimate and contemplative presence. Unique piece, published on Franco Asco monography.

Biagio Romeo Signed Bronze Woman Sculpture, Wood Base, Italian, 1996

By Romeo

Located in Milano, IT

Beautiful bronze and wood sculpture designed in 1996, fine Italian manufacture. SIGNED. The base is made of lacquered black wood. This form serves as a pedestal for the actual sculpture. The main body is represented by an entirely nude bronze woman, kneeling. The woman is seated on a rock, on which the artist's signature is carved. The woman is represented in a contorted position: in fact, she is seated with one knee on the ground, while her entire weight pivots on the other. With one arm she touches the ground to keep her balance while with the other she touches her head, as if she wanted to be photographed. The woman is completely naked and we can see this from her obvious breasts, but her bottom is also visible. The woman seems to represent a person who wants to be looked at, proudly showing herself in her nudity. A hymn to female nudity and to the beauty and harmony of the body. The sculpture is very beautiful and suitable for decorating classy areas. Bibliography: Biagio Romeo...
