Original statue by famous 19th century French artist, Charles Levy (died 1899). Depicts handsome working man, possibly a miner or a harvester, taking a break. Name of the work is FANEUR. 9 1/2inches high. Stands on naturalistic rock formed base with sheaths of wheat lying behind the young man. There are a number of hand-impressed marks on the base, including the artist's name (twice), and others that I believe are the foundry/maker's marks. PAN EUR PAR CH. LEVY and SALON DES BEAUX ARTS. The barefoot worker is dressed only in a pair of trousers rolled up to the knees and a sash around his waist from which a water bottle and handkerchief hang at the back. Marvellous physique - thin with clearly defined muscles and strongly chiselled face under a small hat. Fabulous fine detail such as the tendons in the neck, crease of the clothes that show the muscular thighs clearly underneath and beautiful fingers and back. Excellent condition.
