You are bidding on an Elegant and Beautiful Bronze Statue of a Showgirl with wonderful detail, in excellent condition. The statue is cast bronze from the lost wax technique. The statue stands on a black marble base and is signed A. Leonard . Agathon Léonard or Léonard Agathon van Weydevelt ( 1841 Lille - 1923 Paris ), was a French Art Nouveau sculptor. Belgian by birth, Léonard moved to Paris when quite young and studied sculpture at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts de Paris under Eugène Delaplanche . He became a member of the Société des Artistes Français in 1887 and a member of the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts in 1897. He regularly exhibited across France , and was made a chevalier of the Légion d'Honneur in 1900. Some of his best-known works are studies of dancers, such as La Cothurne (Tragic Pose from Le Jeu d'escharpe), modeled in 1895 and cast in 1900. The Play of the Scarf , executed in a characteristic fin-de-siècle manner and rendered in gilt, showed a dancer in a flowing gown with a billowing scarf held above her head. This piece was produced in 1897, was inspired by the renowned dancer, Lois Fuller and was displayed as a table centerpiece at the 1900 World's Fair at the Pavillon de Sevres in Paris . Bronze casting of Léonard's work was carried out by the Susse Frères Editeurs foundry. Besides bronze, he also produced works in marble, quartz and ivory. His bas-relief of St. Cecilia is to be found in the Abbeville Museum and the the Nantes Museum houses a bust titled The Plunderer of Shipwrecks .
