Inscribed, Chiparus, on the back. Circa: early 20th century. Mounted on a marble base. Demetre Haralamb Chiparus also known as Dumitru Chiparus was a Romanian Art Deco era sculptor who lived and worked in Paris. Sculptures of Dimitri Chiparus represent the classical manifestation of Art Deco style in decorative bronze sculpture. Traditionally, four factors of influence over the creative activity of the artist can be distinguished: Serge Diaghilev's Ballets Russes, ancient Egyptian art, and French theatre. Early motion pictures were among his more notable subjects and were typified by figures with a long, slender, stylized appearance. Some of his sculptures were directly inspired by Russian dancers.
