A BRONZE BUST OF A BOY BY PAOLO TRUBETSKOY, RUSSIAN/ITALIAN - Paul Troubetzkoy (Italian/Russian, 1866–1938). Bust of a Young Boy, 1915. Bronze with brown patina, on a black marble base, signed and dated on the side of the truncation: Paul Troubetzkoy / 1915. A finely modeled portrait bust of a young boy, the child’s head slightly tilted with a contemplative gaze, his shoulders draped with a loosely rendered garment. The surface bears the lively, sketch-like modeling characteristic of Troubetzkoy’s impressionistic approach, evoking immediacy and vitality. Executed during the artist’s mature period, when his portraits of children and society sitters were in high demand across Europe and America, the bust reflects his ability to capture both likeness and spirit with fluid spontaneity. Dimensions: H: 14 in., (35.5 cm.) Conditions: Excellent with a very nice bronze patina throughout. Please make all inquiries before bidding. All lots are sold ”as-is”, refer to our T&C.
