bronze nude figure, maugsch gyula, marble base, 41 cm

For sale is an important and expressive bronze sculpture depicting a female nude, created by the Hungarian sculptor Gyula Maugsch (1882–1946).

This work represents the mature artistic language of the late Art Nouveau and early Art Deco period, combining classical balance with refined modern sensitivity. The modelling is highly accomplished, with softly flowing transitions, harmonious proportions, and a strong sense of sculptural presence.Cast in solid bronze and finished with a deep, dark patina, the sculpture displays outstanding surface quality and depth. The patina enhances every contour and subtle anatomical detail, reflecting high technical standards of early 20th-century bronze casting.The figure stands on an elegant red marble base, adding visual contrast, stability, and further artistic value. Such original combinations of bronze and natural stone were reserved for higher-quality sculptural works.Signature
