ABOUT

Marcel Andre Bouraine - French, 1886 to 1948 ~ Born in Pontoise in 1886, Bouraine was a prominent French sculptor known for his contributions to the Art Deco movement. He began his artistic journey as a student of Jean-Alexandre Joseph Falguière and soon developed a distinctive style that captured the elegance and modernity of the Art Deco era. Bouraine's works are characterised by their dynamic forms, smooth lines, and a sense of movement that reflects the period's fascination with speed, technology, and modern life.

Bouraine often sculpted figures of athletic, idealized women, dancers, and mythological subjects, embodying the glamour and sophistication of the 1920s and 1930s. His sculptures were not only decorative but also reflected the era's aesthetic values, making them highly sought after by collectors.

Exhibiting widely in Paris, Bouraine's work gained international acclaim, contributing significantly to the Art Deco movement's legacy in decorative arts. His sculptures remain celebrated for their exquisite craftsmanship and timeless elegance, embodying the spirit of an era marked by innovation and artistic exploration.

This early 20th century Art Deco cold painted silver bronze figure belongs to the 1930 period and exemplifies the style through a dynamic, streamlined pose of a female warrior preparing to throw a spear. The sculpture exhibits a silvered metal finish on the figure and a black colour on the triple wedge shaped base. Details visible include stylized hair swept back from the face, outstretched arms with one hand pointing and the other holding a thin shaft, and drapery flowing backwards from the waist. The sculpture measures 37 cm in height, 63 cm in width, and 14 cm in depth. Home placement suits a mantelpiece, where the piece provides a decorative focal point in a living room, study, or hallway interior.

FAQs

Art Deco figural sculptures from the 1920s and 1930s are recognised by streamlined forms, stylized human anatomy, athletic poses, and strong geometric compositions often reflected in stepped or angled bases.

Art Deco sculptors frequently utilised cast bronze, cold-cast spelter, or plated metals finished in silver, nickel, or dark patinas, mounted upon dark marble, onyx, or slate bases.

Authentic period pieces often feature signatures etched into the cast metal or stone base, sharp detailing around hair and drapery, era-consistent foundry marks, and natural age wear to the plating or patina.

Place the sculpture on a mantelpiece, console table, or sideboard top as a focal architectural accent, pairing it with clean modern lines or geometric artwork to balance the room.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth. Avoid chemical polishes, abrasive cleansers, or high moisture environments that could strip protective coatings or accelerate oxidisation.
