Description
An Italian bust of a woman wearing a sleeveless and creased dress attached with a fibula. This elegant 20th-century Italian bust captures the timeless beauty and grace of a woman adorned in a sleeveless, creased dress, secured on one side by a delicate fibula. The craftsmanship is evident in the finely detailed features and the sophisticated hairdo, which adds an air of classical refinement to the piece. Made from European style plaster, possibly mixed with some concrete, this sculpture has a durable yet refined finish that highlights its intricate detailing.

The light dress drapes softly, revealing her shoulders and adding a sense of fluidity and movement to the bust.

Its timeless appeal makes it a versatile piece, perfect for enhancing both traditional and contemporary decor styles. The combination of its graceful form, detailed craftsmanship, and historical reference ensures that this Italian bust will be a cherished addition to any art collection, bringing a touch of European elegance to your home.
