Michele Vedani, "Maiden," bronze sculpture, signed, Early 20th century period. The sculpture shown is an elegant bronze work by Michele Vedani, measuring between 38 and 44 cm in height (including the base, presumably made of light marble). The work depicts a slender, standing female figure with her head slightly reclined backward, in a gesture that suggests contemplation. Bronze, with dark finish and expressive surface treatment. Woman in simple clothing (knee-length skirt and blouse), her arms relaxed along her sides. Upward gaze conveys a sense of introspection or hope.
