Original Terracotta Signed Fr.deckers, Bacchanale.

Important original terracotta signed Fr.Deckers on the terrace and dating from the beginning of the 19th century.
inspired by 18th century sculptures in the spirit of Clodion, this terracotta is not an edition terracotta but an original full terracotta made by the hands of the artist.
attention it is full and the weight is therefore consequent.
The artist was inspired by bacchanalia scenes from antiquity and the terracottas of Clodion.
a beautiful seated bacchante, her chest bare, her forehead adorned with a crown of vine branches, and casts a smiling face towards a toddler with her arms stretched out on her legs.
she is busy placing a bunch of grapes in a cup while watching the putto.
probably a beautiful allegory of the vines and the harvest.
very beautiful nuanced old patina.
a tiny chip on the edge of the cut.
very good general condition.
a superb quality terracotta when you focus on looking at the details, you will discover a great finesse of execution in this refined sculpture.
