This elegant bronze sculpture depicts a kneeling woman offering a bowl filled with fruit. The figure is rendered with soft lines and a stylized treatment characteristic of the Art Deco period. The pose, both serene and balanced, reflects a refined sense of harmony and modernity.
Known for his public monuments and war memorials, Georges Vérez demonstrates here a more intimate and decorative approach. The subject—both allegorical and timeless—evokes a sense of calm abundance.
The quality of the casting and the subtle patina highlight the care taken in its production. A fine example of 1920s–30s French bronze sculpture, this piece captures the spirit of the Art Deco era with grace and simplicity.
