"Small Pierrot Bronze "in The Moonlight" Signed E.bouret - 2nd Part Of The Nineteenth"
Bronze with golden brown patina depicting the famous character of the Commedia Dell'Arte, signed "Bouret" at its base and resting on a white and gray marble. Eutrope Bouret (1833-1906), a pupil of Buhot, made his debut at the Salon of 1875 and obtained an honorable mention in 1885. Titled on its base "Au clair de la Lune", mon ami Pierrot… a famous nursery rhyme popularized in the 18th century, an integral part of French heritage. Pierrot, an orphan, is presented to us standing, playing the mandolin, his head following his slightly inclined body and his right leg forward. In this position, it is easy for us to imagine him singing a melody accompanied by his instrument, to seduce the public. The budding actor is wearing his soft hat, his traditional shirt contrasting with large buttons and he wears small slippers with pompoms, faithful to the fanciful costume, known to all. This work will awaken your sensitivity by the choice of its subject, symbol of melancholy and sweetness. ******** Period: 2nd part of the 19th century Shipping possible by Colissimo with careful packaging and suitable protection Dimensions: Height: 25 cm Width: 9 cm Depth: 9 cm Weight: 2.27 kg Ref: 346 T
