Anton Nelson (1849 - After 1910), Bust Of A Young Woman, Around 1890 - The Opulence Of Beauty -
Artist: Nelson, Anton (1849 - Après 1910)
Anton Nelson (i.e. Antoine Joseph van den Kerckhoven) (1849 Brussels - after 1910 ibid.), Bust of a young woman, c. 1890. Patinated bronze on cast base, 30 cm (total height) x 20 cm (width) x 14 cm (depth), weight 2.5 kg. Signed “Ant.[on] Nelson” on the reverse.
- Somewhat stained and rubbed, blackened edge of the cape on the reverse, outer tip of the robe with a hairline crack. Overall still in good condition for its age.
- The Opulence of Beauty -
The youthful beauty gazes confidently into the distance, looking forward to her future. Beneath her graceful face is her gracefully elongated neck, which flows into her bare shoulders. And the garment underneath reveals more than it conceals. The youthful, natural nakedness is surrounded by an opulent accessory that adorns her like an ornament. The cape-like drapery forms a flower shape from which the youthful beauty seems to grow, while the headdress completes the flower shape at the top.
