Item description
Terracotta bust, "Lady with cap". Beautifully crafted, the work represents a gentle lady belonging to the bourgeoisie, as demonstrated by the clothes and furnishings she wears. In her hands, covered with elegant worked gloves, she holds a book to her chest, probably a prayer book. A cap tied with a bow on her head then descends like a cloak over her shoulders, while marvelous curls frame her sweet and young face. The sculpture, in good condition, is of beautiful impact, of natural dimensions, and transmits great sweetness and gentleness. The beautiful patina, due to time, demonstrates all the authenticity of the object and through the pleasant nuances gives it a particular light.
