Mid-Century Korean Bronze Bust

$648.00

10”W x 16”H x 7”D

This captivating mid-century modern bust, a Korean cast bronze created for the American market, presents a study in stylized form and subtle detail. The flowing lines of the hair create a sense of movement and grace, counterpointed by the quiet composure conveyed through the absence of a mouth. The stylized hands, rendered with elegant simplicity, add to the work's introspective mood. Mounted on a wood base, the bronze exhibits a warm patina, a testament to its age and history. Further adding to its unique character is the stamped mark "3.BM," an intriguing detail that invites speculation about its origins – whether a foundry mark, artist's code, or a production identifier. This piece represents a fascinating intersection of Korean craftsmanship and American design sensibilities, appealing to collectors seeking a distinctive work of art with both aesthetic appeal and historical resonance. The bust is not just a decorative object but a conversation piece that embodies the minimalist design trends of the era.
