ITEM DESCRIPTION
THIS EXCEPTIONAL SCULPTURE IS AN UNIQUE, GENUINE AND EXTREMELY RARE ARTWORK, NOT AN AFTER OR REPRODUCTION. EXAMINING THIS BUST WITH LIGHTS ORIENTED AT DIFFERENTS ANGLES I CONSIDER THIS WORK ONE OF THE RAREST AND MOST FABULOUS I HAVE SEEN,WHERE AN ANIMAL (A FOX) IS NOT INCORPORATED INTO THE WORK AS AN ANIMAL ITSELF, BUT AS AN ACCESSORY, BEING A SKIN STOLE WHICH IN THE SHAPE OF THE FOX'S BODY SURROUNDS THE WOMAN'S BUST. REALLY AMAZING REALISM AND QUALITY.THIS ANTIQUE WORK IS A FAITHFUL REPRESENTATION OF A FASHION THAT WOULD CURRENTLY BE CONSIDERED ECOLOGICALLY IMMORAL AND OFFENSIVE, BUT WHICH DENOTES AN INGENIOUS BEAUTY BY INCORPORATING THE POSSIBILITY OF FUSIONING THE FACE OF A FOX WITH THAT OF A LADY.
This is an antique, exceptional, sophisticated and highly detailed hand carved alabaster bust of a young lady surrounded by a fox skin stole. Really exquisite, extremely rare and imposing unsigned sculpture. Style, quality and patina indicates this artwork can be attributed to Adolfo Cipriani, and made in Florence, Italy, between 1895 to 1915. In the pictures i used light at different angles to show the quality of this work through the shadows. As you can see in the detailed pictures, this sculptureis very accurate and incredibly chiseled.From every angle this is a beautiful artwork. Very good and original antique condition withminimal loses, patina and signals of use consistent with age.Height is 40 centimeters. Wide is 28 centimeters. Depth is 17 centimeters.Shipping costs via FedEx certified with tracking code is $ 199 (including a very safe and secure wooden box professionally made to protect the bust perfectly). 3 to 5 weeks to arrive.
