A finely cast bronze Czech Modernist sculpture of a mother and child by Vincenc Makovsky—an expressive early-career work modeled with rich texture and emotional depth. This signed bronze captures Makovsky’s signature dynamism and the influence of Rodin in its fluid modeling and intimate subject.
Vincenc Makovsky (1900–1966) was a leading figure of Czech modern sculpture, known for merging classical form with expressive, humanistic themes. His early bronzes are especially prized for their sensitivity and sculptural vigor, and this example reflects the interwar European movement toward emotionally charged figuration.
The sculpture is cast in bronze with a deep, warm patina and a textured, hand-modeled surface. Signed V. Makovsky on the front right of the base. Condition is excellent. Dimensions: Height 7.75”, Depth 4.75”, Length 13.75”.
A compelling, intimate work ideal for collectors of European modernism, bronze sculpture, and expressive figural art. Its scale and emotional resonance make it equally suited for display on a console, bookshelf, or curated interior vignette.
