Description
This finely cast bronze sculpture by French artist Pierre Louis Detrier depicts a woman carrying a child, rendered with sensitivity and realism characteristic of 19th-century French academic sculpture. From a private collection. Dimensions: 14"h x 6"w x 7"d. In very good condition.
The figure is shown in motion, her garments flowing naturally around her form, while the child rests securely in her arms. Detrier's attention to detail is evident in the textured drapery, expressive posture, and lifelike facial features, all contributing to a sense of warmth and humanity. Resting on a shaped base, the sculpture exemplifies Detrier's mastery in creating intimate yet monumental figurative works. A graceful representation of maternal devotion, this piece embodies both technical skill and emotional depth.
Pierre Louis Detrier (1822-1897) was a French sculptor recognized for his finely detailed bronze and marble works in the 19th century. He exhibited regularly at the Paris Salon from 1863 to 1896, earning critical acclaim for his sensitive figurative compositions. Detrier was awarded medals at several Salons, solidifying his reputation among the leading sculptors of his time. His works, celebrated for their craftsmanship and expressive realism, are held in both public and private collections, reflecting his enduring contribution to French academic sculpture.
