Large Terracotta Bust Of Mme Du Barry, After Pajou

Beautiful terracotta bust representing Madame Du Barry after the famous bust of Pajou.
This terracotta bust is a beautiful revival dating from the end of the 19th century of the great master's sculpture that we find today in the Louvre collections, although with some differences from the original.
This terracotta bust is beautifully made with a repetition of details and nuances highlighting the beauty of the model.
the old patina accentuates the sculpted models of the favorite by playing on the contrasts in the light:
the facial features, the ingenious draping of the negligee, the elaborate hairstyle...
the bust is in excellent condition and rests on a marble pedestal sea green.
the pedestal has a small accident of approximately 1.5 cm on the base but hardly visible once placed.

a great classic of French sculpture with timeless charm.
