Jeune Femme, Bronze Signé Alexandre Auguste Caron. Art Nouveau

  

Sublime Bronze, Jeune Femme Signé Alexandre Auguste Caron. Certaines de ses ouvres sont représentées au musée d'Orsay et au Petit Palais à Paris. Quelques légères égreneuses au socle. Born in Paris in 1857, he studied under sculptors as Barrau, Roufosse andScaillet and exposed from 1893 in the Salon des Artistes Français, where he received an honourable mention in 1898.

Worked mainly in bronze, bronze with ivory and silver, brown and gold patinas and sometimes small gemstones and posessed a typical atmosphere of the decadence of the fin de siècle, as for instance After the Bath, Slave for sale, Atalanta, Venus, Mlle. The often small bronzes are wonderfully patinated and very finely detailed and are internationally very wanted.
