A Terracotta Bust of a Young Girl France circa 1810, attributed to Joseph Chinard of a young girl depicted in a high waisted gown featuring ruched short sleeves, with a variegated faux marble finish, 30cm wide, 45cm high Joseph Chinard (1756 -1813) was one of the greatest portraitists and sculptors of late 18th and early 19th century France. Born in Lyon, he received his first commission at the age of sixteen to sculpt a decorative façade on the city s Hotel de Ville. He later travelled to Rome where he studied for three years under the influence of eminent neo-classicists such as Jacques-Louis David and Antonio Canova. Following his return to France Chinard s career flourished as the country moved into Empire period, providing an abundance of Napoleonic patronage opportunities for both sculpture and portraits. During this time he created marble busts for the Empress Josephine, Prince Eugène de Beauharnais and other members of the Imperial court. Chinard earned recognition as a master of French sculpture for his fidelity towards his subjects, and a talent for exquisite rendering of the human form; the present bust exhibits the characteristic softness of touch and delicate balance of proportion that is so familiar to his known works.
