ÉMILE LOUIS PICAULT (1833–1915) AFTER, "BOUCAINE", FRENCH, LATE 19TH OR EARLY 20TH CENTURY Patinated bronze sculpture depicting a seated semi-nude female figure adorned with floral garlands and drapery, her head turned gracefully to one side. A small circular shield is suspended across her back, adding an Orientalist or allegorical character to the composition. The sculpture is signed "Boucaine" on the base, likely referring to the title of the work rather than the sculptor. Dimensions: H (excluding base): 14 in., (35.5 cm.) Condition: Overall good condition with age-related surface wear, minor scratches and areas of patina variation. Small areas of rubbed patina reveal the underlying bronze, particularly on the hair, face, shoulders, and raised details. Minor green oxidation is visible in recessed areas and along the base.
