Jean OSOUF (1898-1996) - Lot 87
Jean OSOUF (1898-1996) Coralie Bronze with light brown patina. Signed J. OSOUF on the back of the neck and EA for artist's proof Bears the founder's stamp CIRE PERDUE A. VALSUANI. H. 38 cm with wooden base H. 13,5 cm From 1935 to 1945, Jean Osouf made many works of his model Coralie. These busts and heads are an opportunity for the sculptor to study with delicate veracity the behaviour and character of the young girl. On the subject of these female busts, the art critic Waldemar George remarks "Osouf finds in his busts of young girls the sinuous smile of the Angel of Reims, that 'vincian' smile before the letter which is one of the emblems of French culture".
