Description
This exquisite 19th-century English biscuit sculpture, masterfully created by Edouard Lanteri, portrays two young women in a moment of tranquil repose, their flowing dresses cascading around them in delicate folds that evoke the grace and refinement of the era. Titled "Duo," the piece resonates with the artistic influences of British Olympian masters such as Frederic Leighton and Laurence Alma Tadema, embodying the serene beauty and classical ideals that were revered during the Victorian period. Standing at a noble height of 18 inches, with a width of 16 inches and a depth of 12.5 inches, the sculpture is a testament to Lanteri's skillful handling of fine bisque porcelain. Despite minor flea chips on the base, which attest to its historical journey, the sculpture remains in remarkable condition with no cracks, repairs, or significant damage, preserving the integrity of Lanteri's vision and the timeless allure of this bygone artistic epoch.
