French school; 20th century. "Bust of a child". Plaster. Signed. Measurements. 17,5 x 13 x 12,5 cm. Round sculpture made of polychrome plaster, representing a bust of a small child. It is a baby with closed eyes. The protagonist shows an ideal face with symmetrical features, of clear classical roots, but realistic. The author thus offers us an image of restrained expressiveness. Regarding the technical and formal aspects, the sculptor demonstrates a great mastery of the craft, a virtuosity especially evident in details.
