Description: A STUNNING 20" Signed French Art Nouveau Gilded Spelter Sculpture of a Goddess Lady by well noted French artist, Louis Auguste Moreau (1855-1919). The piece shows signs of wear consistent with age, mainly to the gold gilding, which gives it a beautiful antique patina. She is also missing parts of two fingers (see pictures). Louis Auguste Moreau was a French sculptor best known for his bronze-cast figurines. His allegorical Art Nouveau works often depicted women, children, cherubs, and historical figures adorned with floral motifs and ornaments, and were influential to other artists working at the time. Born in Dijon, France in 1855 to a celebrated family of sculptors, including his father, Auguste Moreau, he went on to regularly exhibit his work at the Paris Salon from 1861 on. The artist died in 1919 in France.
