Boy with Roosters Paul CHEVRE
sia antion, riga, latvia
Authors bronze statue Boy with Roosters Paul CHEVRE. H - 75 cm. Represents the work of the famous Franco-Canadian master of the second half of the 19th - beginning of the 20th century. It depicts a Boy taking apart fighting cocks. This gambling and fighting event was conveyed in an anti-censoring manner; a naked young man and in the pathos of gestures represent it. A slightly deviated figure of a young man gives way to angry roosters and their line of aggression crosses the line of the boy and loincloth. Their expressive nature creates energy and strength and also sets off the noble patina of the young man’s smooth body.

Bronze figure Russian dancer. Paul PHILIPPE 1920

P. Philippe (1870-1930). Chryselephantine figurine. Bronze and ivory. Russian dancer, circa 1920. A magnificent example of Art Deco sculpture. The energetic and impetuous dance has frozen at its climax. The girl has frozen on one leg, grasping the space with her hands. The stormy and extremely truthful plasticity of the fabric is shaded by the smoothness of the bone, open arms and chest. The figure itself is full of expression and twisted in a spiral, where the heavy oriental belt is balanced by the impulse of the body and the tilt of the face. Signature on the foot.
