Une Heure de la Nuit

by

Joseph Michel Pollet

Pollet Art Nouveau Bronze

A very special bronze sculpture in high Art Nouveau style emblematic of the night, represented by a beautiful naked nymph rising through the air, her night sheet falling by her side as it caresses her flesh, the gilded 'night star' delicately placed above her forehead. The bronze has a rich deep brown colour and smooth tactile surface detail that serves to draw the viewer into the mist of dreams. Signed Pollet
