This striking bronze composition features a distinguished bust of Charles-François Gounod, the celebrated Romantic-era composer known for masterpieces such as Faust and Roméo et Juliette. The sculpted portrait captures Gounod’s intellectual presence and refined character, with carefully modeled facial features and period detailing that reflect his artistic legacy. Beneath the composer’s bust stands a graceful maiden holding a flower, symbolizing inspiration, lyricism, and the poetic beauty of music. The elegant pairing creates a harmonious and meaningful composition, blending classical portraiture with allegorical artistry. Hand made using the traditional lost-wax casting method, this genuine bronze sculpture is signed by Milo and finished with a rich brown patina that enhances depth, texture, and fine detailing throughout. The piece is mounted on a marble plinth, providing both stability and a sophisticated contrast to the warm bronze tones.
