Lenght 57, height 31, depth 6 cm, lacked wood, n°3/3
We know "the lady with an ermine" by Leonardo da Vinci. Gaël
Rouxeville was also inspired by the beautiful animal, and treated him in
a resolutely contemporary way: both static by his posture, and very
dynamic by the treatment of curves (which induces the initiation of a
movement). Under its patinated clear lacquer, it takes on a
quasi-mineral aspect that takes us out of reality. The surprising
material thus created goes perfectly with the base in
solid
oak wood. The stoat is also called the white lady (hence the title),
because of its immaculate coat during the winter period ... This work
has benefited from all the artist's know-how to bring you perfect
satisfaction over time (quality wood, lacquers and varnishes). It is the
last copy on sale, each with a different base. One is in a public
collection, the other in Germany ... Numbered 3/3, dated and signed by
the artist. To exhibit indoors; requires no maintenance.
