Description
Paul-Francois Berthoud Bronze Portrait of Sarah BernhardtThis gilt and patinated bronze French Art Nouveau sculpture portrait depicts famed actress Sarah Bernhardt, by Paul-Fran?ois Berthoud. Berhnardt, one of the most important actresses of her day, is frozen, here, in a stance and expression of great beauty, strength, and allure. As her flowing hair gently frames her face, a bold sash daringly decorates her chest; her eyes are cast downward, as though to the audience below her in the pit of one of her acclaimed performances.Exhibition History: Slightly different portrait sculpture of Sarah Bernhardt, also by Paul-Fran?ois Berthoud, is in the collection of the Mus?e d'OrsayArtist: Paul-Fran?ois BerthoudCirca: 1900Artist: Paul-François BerthoudCirca: 1900 Dimensions: 23" height, 20" width, 13" depth
