Description
Workshop of Gustave Fontaine (Etterbeek, 1877 – Brussels, 1952) – Modelled female head
Plaster. Dimensions: 39 × 25 × 27 cm. A sculptural study from the workshop of Gustave Fontaine, created as an academic model or working piece. The female head is characterised by sensitive and balanced modelling, with a soft treatment of volumes and particular attention to expression and the anatomical structure of the face. This type of work served as a formative exercise and reference in the sculptor’s creative process, and constitutes a representative example of the teaching and practice of sculpture in Belgium during the first half of the 20th century. Item held in an international warehouse (within the EU). Intra-EU shipping: no import duties apply within the EU. An export licence from the country of origin may be required.
