Art Deco Style Polar Bear Sculpture After Francois Pompon, MoMA Edition, circa 1984
A refined cast resin sculpture depicting the iconic Ours Blanc (Polar Bear), originally created by Francois Pompon between 1921-1924. This vintage reproduction, issued through the Museum of Modern Art, captures the sculptor's celebrated minimalist approach-defined by smooth, simplified forms and a quiet sense of movement.
Executed in white resin, the piece embodies the elegance and modernity of Pompon's original vision, which marked a departure from highly detailed 19th-century animal sculpture toward a more stylized, sculptural purity. The underside bears a stamp to the rear foot, consistent with museum reproductions of the period.
Compact in scale yet visually impactful, this work is ideal for display on a desk, shelf, or curated vignette, appealing to collectors of Art Deco, modernist sculpture, and design icons.
