Jean OSOUF (1898-1996) Bather or Study of Coralie Terracotta proof Signed J. Osouf and numbered 3/8. H. 45 cm Related works: Jean Osouf, Petite baigneuse, 1938, bronze, H. 47 x W. 13 x D. 7.3 cm, Paris, Musée d'Art Moderne, inv.

A bookseller and hero of the First World War, it was Aristide Maillol who convinced him of his talent for sculpture. Osouf attended the Scandinavian Academy, where he studied under Charles Despiau. After the 1937 World's Fair, where his statue L'Éveil (The Awakening) was well received by the critics, he embarked on a career as a sculptor influenced by medieval art. From 1935 to 1945, Jean Osouf created numerous works of his model Coralie. These busts and heads are an opportunity for the sculptor to study the girl's behavior and character with delicate veracity. Commenting on these female busts, art critic Waldemar George remarked, "Osouf rediscovers in his busts of young girls the sinuous smile of the Angel of Reims, that 'vincien' smile avant la lettre which is one of the emblems of French culture".
