This impressive bronze sculpture, entitled "Phoenician Dancer," is a stellar example of Art Deco elegance and dynamism. The piece features a dancing lady captured in a theatrical pose with arms outstretched, standing en pointe with her legs gracefully bent close together. The detailed rendering of her form—even down to the subtle tone of her stomach muscles—reveals the artist’s extraordinary craftsmanship and passion for capturing movement and beauty in bronze.
Heavily influenced by the fascination with ancient Egypt that swept through the 1920s after the unveiling of King Tutankhamun’s tomb, Demetre Chiparus imbued this work with creative inspiration drawn from that era. The dancer’s elegant attire and poised gesture reflect not only the stylistic hallmarks of Art Deco but also a reverence for Egyptian artistic motifs. The sculpture is meticulously handmade and finished with a rich brown patina, which further enhances its visual depth and timeless appeal.
Mounted on an Art Deco-styled black marble base and signed by Chiparus, this large, heavy bronze sculpture stands as a testament to the innovative spirit of early 20th-century art. Demetre Haralamb Chiparus, a Romanian-born sculptor who made his mark in Paris, studied with prominent artists such as Raffaello Romanelli, Antonin Mercie, and Jean Boucher. His work continues to be celebrated for its blend of classical influences and modern dynamism, making "Phoenician Dancer" a coveted piece for collectors and art enthusiasts alike.Bronze Dimensions with Marble Base: Height 19" X Width 14"
