Now up for auction is this exceptional bronze sculpture by the renowned Swiss-born French artist Jean-Jacques Pradier (1792-1852), created around 1848. The piece, titled "Phryne," depicts the famous courtesan from ancient Athens, a figure known for her beauty and legendary role in the 4th century BC. This neoclassical sculpture captures Phryne with exquisite detail, standing gracefully on a shaped, stepped plinth, embodying both elegance and classical charm. The sculpture remains in fine condition, showcasing Pradier's mastery of form and composition. Pradier originally crafted the model of Phryne from Parian marble, an ideal material to honor the Grecian inspiration behind the subject. At nearly two meters in height, the original marble statue was an impressive tribute to Phryne's allure, known for its intricate polychrome and gold accents that adorned her jewels and drapery. The combination of these elements created a dazzling visual effect, leaving a lasting impression on all who beheld the work. This bronze rendition of Pradier’s "Phryne" is a striking homage to the original marble piece, capturing the timeless beauty and allure that the artist so expertly portrayed. Its meticulous craftsmanship and classical design make it a remarkable addition to any collection, perfect for those who appreciate fine neoclassical art and the historic significance of Phryne’s story.
