There is a stillness to this figure that feels deliberately theatrical — a woman standing with one arm raised, a long cloak falling from her shoulders in heavy folds, her gaze set somewhere beyond the room. Sculptors of the Art Deco period often worked in exactly this contrast of tones, pairing a pale, almost luminous face and hands against a darker, richly textured costume, so the figure reads as both statuesque and alive. It carries the character of a 1930s interior, the kind of piece meant to stand alone on a console or pedestal, commanding a room rather than sharing it.
The sculpture depicts a standing woman in a long, draped gown with a flowing cloak over her shoulders, one arm raised and bent at the elbow. The face, neck, and hands are finished in a pale ivory tone, contrasting with the deep, mottled dark patina of the robes and cloak, which show subtle veining and texture throughout. The piece is signed Menneville.
This is offered as a single sculpture.
