Art Nouveau Bronze Bust On Marble Base By Léon Delagrange

This bronze, in very good condition (2 tiny chips on the base) depicts a young boy with his quiver full of arrows on his back. 
The head is made of gilded bronze and the base is made of marble. 
The head is engraved with the name of the artist "Delagrange". 
It was probably made around 1900. 
Ferdinand Marie Léon Delagrange (13 March 1872 – 4 January 1910) was a sculptor and pioneering French aviator, ranked as one of the top aviators in the world. 
He studied sculpture from 1894 to 1899 at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris in the workshops of Louis-Ernest Barrias (1841-1905) and Charles Vital-Cornu (1851-1927). He exhibited at the Salon des artistes français and became a member in 1900. 
The artistic world he frequents allows him to approach the one still in its infancy of aviation, which becomes for him a second passion. 
On January 4, 1910, Léon Delagrange is victim, near Bordeaux, of the rupture of a wing of his Blériot XI plane and died during this accident.
