AUGUSTE BIJA (1872 - 1957). "Bust of a lady. Patinated bronze. Signed on the front left. Measurements: 30 cm (height); 12 cm (base height). Round sculpture made in bronze. The main image starts from a pedestal on which rests the bust of a woman, dressed in a shirt with a v-neckline and a cap in the fashion of the 20's. The piece stands out for the truthfulness of the piece which tends to naturalism as can be appreciated through the folds of the fabric on the shoulder of the protagonist. Although it is true that the young woman's face has idealised features.
