The young and beautiful Flapper hails from the vibrant and roaring twenties. She can be envisioned stepping through the entrance of her townhouse removing her shawl after an exciting night at a speakeasy; dancing to jazz in high spirits. She was a liberalistic "new breed" of young Western women who wore short skirts, bobbed their hair, listened to jazz, and flaunted their disdain for what was then considered acceptable behavior. The handmade bronze sculpture was molded using the ancient method of lost-wax casting and stained with a brown patina finish for preservation. It is mounted upon a black marble base with the European Bronze Finery stamp of quality and the artist Milo's signature.The artist Milo lived most of his childhood in Andalusia, Spain. Influenced by an artistic family background, he began sculpting at the age of seventeen. After apprenticing with several accomplished sculptors both in America and Spain, he began his own work focusing equally on steel and bronze. Condition: This sculpture is in perfect condition.
