Sculpture, Bacchante - 38 cm - Patinated bronze

“Bacchante” – Signed Antique Bronze Sculpture – French School Title: Bacchante Origin: France Period: 19th century (attributed period) Material: Bronze Patina: Rich brown and green patina Signature: Signed on the reverse Dimensions: Height 38 cm × Width 11 cm Description An elegant and finely detailed antique bronze sculpture entitled Bacchante, bearing the signature of the celebrated French bronzier Guillaume Denière (1815–1903). This graceful composition depicts a young Bacchante, a mythological follower of Bacchus, the Roman god of wine and festivity. The figure is portrayed in a beautifully expressive pose, her head gently inclined, with flowing hair adorned with vine leaves. Delicate classical drapery embraces her figure, while she holds generous bunches of grapes, traditional symbols of abundance, fertility and celebration. Particularly noteworthy is the refined modelling of the female figure, the expressive facial features and the carefully sculpted folds of the drapery. The sculpture displays an attractive, naturally aged brown and green patina, with subtle variations that enhance its sculptural depth and antique character. Condition Good antique presentation, with visible age-related wear, patina variations and areas of rubbing, particularly on the arms and lower body. These characteristics are consistent with the sculpture’s aged appearance and should be carefully assessed through the accompanying photographs. A Collector’s Piece With its elegant classical subject, attractive proportions and richly detailed composition, this Bacchante represents a decorative addition to a collection of antique French bronzes. A charming sculpture equally suited to a refined interior, a private collection or a display devoted to European decorative arts. Professional and secure packaging will be provided for shipment, with particular attention to the protection of the sculpture’s delicate details. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form an integral part of the description.
