Antoine Bofill “Faneuse” 19th Century Bronze Sculpture

This elegant antique bronze sculpture, titled Faneuse, is a finely detailed work signed by the renowned sculptor Antoine Bofill. Standing 28 cm tall, the piece depicts a young farm girl in mid-stride, rendered with remarkable grace and sensitivity. She wears traditional rustic attire, including a headscarf and flowing dress, and carries a farming tool over her shoulder, symbolizing the timeless rhythm of rural life.

The bronze features a rich, dark patina that enhances the sculptures depth and texture, beautifully emphasizing the folds of her clothing, the delicate features of her face, and the natural movement captured in her pose. Set upon a textured base, it showcases Bofills talent for combining realism with soft, poetic expression.
