CHARLES-HENRI-JOSEPH CORDIER (1827-1905) Algerian onyx-marble, bronze and gilt bronze, enamel, amethyst eyes; white marble socle French (Paris), 1862 Cordier was Europe's leading ethnographical sculptor. He studied his subjects intensely during travels in North Africa, presenting them as exotic figures rather than stereotypes. His young beauty is alert yet contemplative. This piece is the earliest dated example of a composition that achieved marked success and was replicated with variants using different materials. The Algerian onyx-marble was quarried specifically for Cordier's use. The pedestals were created by Charles-François Rossigneux, an original design. The bust and pedestals together were purchased from Cordier directly by the Cercle des Phocéens, a gentlemen's club in Marseille. This object is part of "Scan The World".
