Francis RENAUD (Saint-Brieuc, 1887-1973) VONNICK. Exceptional direct-cut marble sculpture, circa 1929. Titled on the base and signed on the side "RENAUD". Height: 67 cm. (Minor wear). Created in 1927, Vonnick's plaster study was produced in terra cotta and presented at the 1935 Salon. Our sculpture, unique and remarkable, is most probably the marble the marble presented at the Salon des Artistes Français in 1929. Vonnick, jeune fille de Daoulas, stands out as a delicate yet powerful sculpture, embodying the sensitive genius of Francis Renaud, where the purity of line to express the depth of the human soul. Vonnick is the synthesis between naturalism and geometric stylization, between the ancient and the modern, which the gentleness emanating from this young Breton woman makes clear and obvious. Last but not least, Vonnick is a unique sculpture carved in marble, a noble and difficult-to-tame material, the ideal crucible for this masterpiece of Breton sculpture. The son of shopkeepers based on rue Saint-Guillaume in Saint-Brieuc, Francis Renaud attended the municipal drawing school in Saint-Brieuc, then entered the Ecole des Beaux-Arts de Rennes as a painter in 1903, then the ENSBA in Paris in 1908, in Fernand Cormon's studio. It was only after his military service that Francis Renaud enrolled in Jean-Antoine Injalbert's sculpture studio. He exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français, winning a gold medal in 1932. His works can be seen at the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Rennes, the Musée d'Art et d'Histoire in Saint-Brieuc, the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Quimper and the Musée Breton in Quimper.
