Bronze Act - Reclining woman with Apples - after Fernando Botero

In this amazing and extraordinary bronze a naked, overweight woman is presented in an appealing and lascivious way. With its consciously overproportioned lines this act directly lines up with Fernando Boteros other works. Of course, this bronze is signed by the extraordinary Colombian artist. The bronze pleases the spector's eye with many a detail as well as its overwhelming presence.

From 1976 on, Botero intensively dedicated himself to sculpting. The sculptures made by him with their sensuous and artful forms are priceless masterpieces. This figurine is made of 100% bronze and set on marble socket. This special combination of these two fine and valuable materials underlines the harmonic atmosphere this act of a naked woman is surrounded by.

As all of the bronze products in our shop, this exhibit is hand-cast in our own foundry and subject to our strict quality inspections throughout the entire process of fabrication. All of our sculptures are exclusively compounded with the help of lost-wax casting.

Apart from painting, design as well as illustrating belong to the talents of Fernando Botero, but it is sculpting that the artist manages to really fascinate us with - time and time again. This is due to his special, distinctive style: Fernando Botero skillfully draws attention to the human body through overproportioning his subjects of work, and thus creates a whole new ideal of beauty that is recognized all over the world. Born on April 19, 1932 in Colombia, Fernando Botero is one of the most extraordinary artists of our time. This is also due to his inspiration: every day people and the grand masters of art such as Rubens.
