Description
VICENT DÉSIRÉ FAURE DE BROUSSE (Paris, 1876-1908).
"Young warrior with child in his arms".
Sculpture in patinated bronze.
Signed on the front.
It has a dent on the base.
Measurements: 93 x 40 x 37 cm.
French sculptor, pupil of Jules Salmson in Paris, Vicent Desiré Faure de Brousse participated in the Paris Salon from 1876 to 1883. He was known for his figurative sculptures influenced by the Florentine Renaissance. This fact is demonstrated by the work we now present, in which the youth, hair and morphology of the young warrior could well be related to Andrea del Verrocchio's David. Thus, while Verrocchio's statue shows the young David, the future king of the Israelites, in a triumphant pose with the severed head of Goliath at his feet, our warrior also rests his leg, resolutely and with a certain pride, on a stony mound. His stocky thigh supports a child who is playing with the young man's spear.
