    This rare limestone bust, sculpted with great finesse, is an interpretation of the iconic model by François Duquesnoy, a 17th-century Flemish Baroque sculptor. Depicting a young angel with a gentle face, this work reflects the aesthetic ideals of the Louis XV era, characterized by grace and harmony.
    The careful treatment of the features and the finely crafted hair demonstrate masterful craftsmanship. The stone exhibits a deep, ancient patina, revealing its age and authenticity. An earlier restoration, likely carried out in the 19th century, reattached the head to the torso, highlighting the importance attached to the work by its former owners.
    This piece, by its presence and rarity, would easily find a place in a discerning private collection, a refined interior, or a classically inspired setting.
