Large Vintage French Style Art Nouveau Bronze Statue Sculpture E. Villanis

  

The story of Samson and Delilah, as mentioned in the Old Testament, serves as inspiration for this sculpture. It tells the tale of the Philistine princes, enemies of Israel, who promise a reward to Delilah if she uncovers the secret of Samson's strength. With perseverance, Delilah wears down the hero until he reveals the source of his strength, leading to the dramatic climax of the story. This sculpture beautifully captures the depth of emotion and intrigue of this biblical narrative.

Made using the traditional process of lost-wax casting, this bronze statue ensures the highest quality and attention to detail. The use of "Griotte" red marble for the base adds an elegant and contrasting touch to the piece.
