Authentic signed Curtis Jere mixed-metal wall sculpture depicting a charming European-style street façade with architectural windows, awnings, and a dimensional sidewalk café vignette. Executed in copper, brass, and steel, the piece features layered construction with hand-worked details including miniature chairs, café table, umbrella, and hanging sign.

The façade is richly textured with Jere's signature hand-applied patina, creating depth and tonal variation across the surface. Copper awnings and roof elements contrast beautifully against the mottled brass ground, while wire mesh windows and applied metal details add strong dimensional interest.

Unlike flatter Jere wall panels, this sculpture incorporates freestanding sculptural elements projecting from the surface, giving it a true shadow-play presence when mounted. The overall composition is playful yet architectural, making it an excellent statement piece for modern, eclectic, or mid-century interiors.
