The piece is numbered 158 (seen in picture) and depicts a serene young woman styled with a classic diadem headband. The base prominently features the title; "DIANE" in raised lettering across the front block. It displays the rich, multi-toned painted patina characteristic of turn of the century Parisian decorative arts. A beautiful statement piece for any collector of Art Nouveau or classic European sculpture. The height of the sculpture is 16-inches, the width is 8-inches and the depth is 6.5-inches. I found this most fantastic piece of art from an estate sale in the Treasure Valley. See less
