Victorian Woman with Dog Bronze Sculpture by Jean Patoue This exquisite bronze sculpture depicts a Victorian woman in elegant repose, holding her faithful dog close. The middle-aged woman is dressed in a beautifully detailed long gown that drapes gracefully from her shoulders, accentuated by a brooch under her bosom. The fabric gathers around her waist, enhancing her curves, while intricate patterns bring out the dress’s texture. A clip on her thigh holds up part of the gown, revealing her slender leg and bare feet, adding a delicate, personal touch to the piece. Seated comfortably on a chair, she embraces her loyal dog, symbolizing the bond between owner and pet. Her eyes are gently closed, and her expression conveys relaxation and contentment. The scene reflects a tranquil moment, capturing the Victorian elegance and charm. Handcrafted using the traditional "Lost Wax Method," this sculpture is made of solid 100% bronze and finished with a two-tone brown patina, which brings out the fine details of the artwork. It is mounted on a sturdy base and signed by the artist Jean Patoue, making it a timeless collectible for art enthusiasts.
