Vintage Cubist Sculpture by Atelier Boulogne
Figural wood sculpture by the enigmatic Atelier Boulogne. The sculpture features a stylized head and face carved from solid wood that has been stained and painted. It’s characterized by its sharp and angular lines which create a geometric and abstract aesthetic, embodying the principles of cubism. A real eye-catcher, the sculpture is captivating from all angles.
The base is inscribed with “Atelier Boulogne” and features an indistinct number. Although little is known about the maker, this piece is part of a limited series of eight and was likely crafted in France during the 1950s. The craftsmanship suggests a profound understanding and mastery of wood as a medium.
