PAIR OF POLYCHROME SPELTER COLD PAINTED SCULPTURES BY LOUIS HOTTOT
-
Description
These captivating pair of 19th-century Polychrome spelter figures crafted by Louis Hottot portray a young woman and man in an engaging dialogue. Their lifelike detail captures a moment where the boy seems perplexed while the girl appears utterly delighted. The intricate rendering of their colorful attire, every fold and wrinkle meticulously crafted, adds depth to these busts. Their expressions and gestures are so vividly captured that they almost breathe life into the sculptures. Hottot's masterful use of color on their skin makes these pieces vibrant and visually striking, offering a glimpse into a simpler, more wholesome past. Each figure is elegantly elevated on a marble base.
Louis Hottot, a prominent 19th-century French sculptor, showcased his works at the Paris Salon from 1885 to 1898. His sculptures spanned various mediums including bronze, spelter, marble, and composite materials.
