Item Description

A patinated bronze sculpture of a seated nude man by Belgian sculptor Alexandre Ouline (1918-1940).

The seated figure, thought to be that of an athlete, resting his chin on his hand in a pensive pose highlighting his muscular body and finer features. Ouline has left this piece with a sense or realism and imagination as he sits deep in thought, perhaps working out his next athletic move.

Signed to the bronze base on which the figure sits, this sculpture is of an excellent quality and subject; the handsome patina and tinos green marble base only highlight and enhance the overall work of the sculpture.

Alexandre Ouline (Active 1918-1940)

Alexandre Ouline was a Belgian impressionist and modern sculptor who went on to become a significant figure in the development of modern art.

Particular famous for his works of athletes, such as this one, panthers and other animals, he was known to be active in France from 1918 to 1940.

Dating to circa 1930, this bronze sculpture is an ode to his influential work.

CONDITION REPORT

Good structural condition. Signature to the right of the bronze base.
