Bronze Figurative Sculpture of a Sitting Girl – Signed S Sassoon

Isn’t she beguiling? This bronze figurative sculpture of a young girl sitting is so pretty. She is beautifully rendered, from the folds of her dress to the flow of her hair to her face, feet and hands. We love the composition, an easy-going, relaxed pose, caught in the moment. And we love too the green patina of her casual summer dress. We wonder if the wooden plinth is original. Its smoothness and simplicity amplify the texture and form of the figure and her foot rests on the ground in front of the base. It’s tantalisingly signed ‘S Sassoon’ which has had us scratching our heads because its the name of the famous war poet, Siegfried Sassoon, whose mother was a great artist and sculptor. Could there be a connection? We’ve not been able to find out anything further but regardless, she is a thing of beauty and very skilfully crafted. She would adorn any mantel piece or sideboard.
