After … more Bisque bust with ploychrome enamel decorated with painted gilt and raised on a circular socle with a square plinth. After Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse by Ferdinand and Bing Co. an importer of artistic examples of other artists works during the 1890-1900 era. This example was no doubt created by expert Bohemian artists (Czechoslovakian circa 1900) by a Czechoslovakian company of Fischer & Mieg. Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse was one of the most important and innovative sculptors of 19th-century France. During his long career, Carrier-Belleuse was responsible for important public monuments, as well as creating decorative sculpture for a diverse clientele. One of his major contributions to sculpture is the introduction of 19th-century technology in his workshop to efficiently reproduce his models for an eager market. This way his terracotta and marble models, many of which represent playful mythological subjects and beautiful women, could be dispersed widely. Some minor flaking of gilt paint on plinth, and one tiny repair to edge of scarf tip, also a firing separation on the base only. less
