Philippe (France 1870-1930) was a sculptor who worked during the late 19th and early 20th century. His work primarily consisted of bronze sculptures done in the Art Nouveau and Art Deco genres. Philippe is perhaps best known for his circa 1925 sculpture called Awakening. He was specialized in bronze and chryselephantine sculptures that featured young women. A number of the pieces he created were of figures in the nude which was popular during the era he worked in. Philippe's work is exhibited in the Art Deco Museum in Moscow, Russia. His work is also a part of other major collections and has appeared for sale at major auction houses around the world. (Source: Wikipedia).
