Bronze Sculpture of Elongated Male and Female on Marble Plinth

About the Item

The elongated cast bronze sculpture of abstracted figures in a deep patinated brown show jagged figures together but separated in the conversation of life. They look away from each in opposite directions this is emphasized in the angle of their heads, bodies and markings on their clothing. They are inseparable in their need but attempting to convey a unity of wholeness shows uncertainty and doubt. The minimal construction of this abstract piece expresses a simple but visual truth. The sculpture is placed on a marble plinth and is signed.

  • Bronze Bust Sculpture on Marble Plinth
    Located in London, GB
    This strikingly naturalistic bronze sculpture was created in Florence in 1895. The bust depicts an elderly man, most likely a farm worker, carrying a heavy sack of grain over his shoulder. He wears an old slightly ragged shirt which is open at his chest, revealing his thin body underneath. The man looks out into the distance on the left, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. His mouth is open as though he is breathing heavily with the strain of the work or calling out to someone unknown to the viewer. The sculptor has accurately rendered every detail, with great truth to reality. The faint stubble on the man's chin and the wrinkles on his face and hands are faithfully portrayed. In its naturalistic style and its everyday, unidealised subject-matter, this bronze may be described as a work of Realism. The Realist movement flourished in the arts in Europe in this period, the 19th Century. The bust is signed ‘G Rossi...
