Art Nouveau bronze sculpture Chatelaine XIV S.
Beautiful Art Nouveau bronze sculpture titled “Châtelaine XIV S”, depicting a lady of the Middle Ages with headdress and a long-tailed dress, walking absorbed while reading a book. The figure stands on a stepped pedestal of red marble with a small title plaque, adding contrast and distinction to the composition.
This Art Nouveau bronze sculpture Chatelaine XIV S is a late–19th-century French work of elegant lines and refined movement. The bronze presents a pleasing, even patina that enhances the modelling and drapery. Although signed, the inscription is indistinct; the piece remains rare and desirable for collectors of antique bronzes and Art Nouveau decorative art.
A refined object for interior decoration, the Art Nouveau bronze sculpture Chatelaine XIV S brings a touch of romance—evoking castles and fairy-tale imagery—while retaining the seriousness and craftsmanship of a fine period bronze. Condition is excellent, with small, natural signs of age.
