• Lot Description
  A charming and animated pair of patinated spelter or other metal, figural sculptures by French artist François George, depicting a male and female street musician in mid-performance. One figure strums a guitar while singing, dressed in a bonnet and period attire; the other plays a violin with great flair, wearing a feathered cap and expressive clothing. Both figures stand on round integral bases, signed François George. The sculptures exhibit expressive faces, dynamic poses, and detailed casting that reflect the artist’s whimsical and theatrical approach to genre subjects. Likely cast in France in the early 20th century.
