Masterpiece of Liberty-era Atmosphere: Bronze Sculptural Lamp in Black Marble signed P. Troubetzkoy – Rare for Collectors "Splendid and sought-after specimen dating to the Liberty Revival period (second half of the twentieth century). The lamp was expressly conceived and cast in a foundry as a native art object, faithfully revisiting the famous early-century sculptural model by master Paolo Troubetzkoy." The History and Poetics of the Work "An artwork of rare elegance that captures the very essence of the Belle Époque. This superb desk lamp is not a simple lighting object, but a sculpture designed to fuse light with the plasticity of bronze. At the center of the composition we find the figure of a young woman, caught in a moment of intimate and magnetic daily life as she braids her hair. The sinuous pose and the flowing dress that seems to move in space celebrate the ideal of romantic femininity typical of the Liberty movement. The bronzes modeling, vibrant and rich in reflections, bears the unmistakable signature of master Paolo Troubetzkoy, returning that 'impressionist' effect that made the sculptor famous worldwide. To crown the statue, a sumptuous petal-shaped lampshade in artistic glass in the Tiffany style diffuses a warm, soft, enveloping light. Every detail, from the solid base in veined black marble to the perfect insertion of the stem integrated into the casting, testifies to the absolute refinement of this high-class living-room piece." Technical Sheet and Valuables Details Total Dimensions: Height 70 cm | Width (diameter of the lampshade) 40 cm. Materials: Artistic bronze casting on an imposing and heavy base in precious veined black marble. Signature: Bearing the prestigious signature P. Troubetzkoy incised on the metal base. Rooted in Foundry: Object of exceptional craftsmanship; the passage of the electrical cable is integrally embedded in the bronze casting, preserving the absolute aesthetic integrity of the sculpture. Era: Liberty Revival period (second half of the twentieth century, circa 70s/80s). Notes for transport: Given the significant weight of the solid bronze combined with the black marble base and the delicacy of the artistic glass, the item requires professional customized packaging.
