About the Item

Modernist Carved Wooden Bust, ca. Mid-20th Century This striking hand-carved wooden bust exemplifies the timeless elegance of modernist sculpture. With its elongated proportions, stylized facial features, and smooth, tactile surface, the piece resonates with the aesthetic language of Constantin Brâncuși and Amedeo Modigliani—sculptors who distilled the human form into pure essence and lyrical abstraction. The work captures a serene presence: the finely carved facial planes, gracefully tapered neck, and geometric shoulders create a sense of both monumentality and intimacy. The rich, dark patina enhances the natural grain of the wood, lending warmth and depth to the minimalist design. A powerful statement piece, it would complement both modern and eclectic interiors, whether placed on a pedestal, console, or within a curated art collection. Dimensions: Height: 41 cm (16.14 in.) Width: 22 cm (8.66 in.) Depth: 18 cm (7.09 in.) Condition: Beautiful aged patina with subtle surface variations consistent with age and hand-carved craftsmanship. the bust will be shipped insured overseas in a custom made wooden crate. Cost of transport to the US, Euro 375, is crate included if we organize the transport which we highly recommend. Colors may slightly vary due to photographic lighting sources or your monitor settings. Wear consistent with age and use.
