This female sculpture is a "one of a kind" rare object d'art. It is a modern sculpture that was created in the 20th century, before 1998 when we purchased it. Judging from its appearance, the sculptor was probably influenced by the "Dada" art movement that occurred in France in the years after WWI.
The sculpture is made of paper mache. The large piece is 19 inches high and 13" wide. The unique textured exterior of the form is covered with about 4,000 tiny shells.
This exciting sculpture is a "standout" in any room, not only because of its size but because of its unexpected visual textural shell surface that covers the nude body. When our guests discover the sculpture, they are usually delighted and smiles appear on their faces. Questions about the piece always follow. less
