A fine French bronze sculpture.
Depicting the Greek figure 'Chysis'.
By Andrée Guerval - a pseudonym for Raymonde Guerbe (1894 - 1995). Guerbe was both the student and wife of the famous French sculptor Pierre Le Fagueys.
Depicting a young Greek Chysis partially nude and holding an onyx amphora aloft.
The bronze mounted on a marble plinth with a nice chocolate brown patina.
Signed in the plinth with an incised signature 'A. Guerval' above a faintly incised number 10341 and stamped to the underside of one foot 'JD 22' (possibly for the foundry).
Simply a great French Deco bronze sculpture!
