An exquisite Art Deco bronze sculpture by French artist Marcel-André Bouraine, depicting a kneeling female nude, believed to represent Penthesilea, the mythological Queen of the Amazons. With her arms raised and posture captured mid-motion, the figure embodies both elegance and strength—a hallmark of Bouraine’s dynamic style. The surface features the artist’s original silver patina, lending the work a soft, luminous finish.

This early 20th-century work exemplifies the refined aesthetics of the Art Deco period, with its stylized form, sensual modeling, and balanced composition. The base is inscribed “Bouraine,” confirming authenticity. An exceptional piece for collectors of fine early modern bronzes.
