DESCRIPTION
French school, ca. 1928.
"Fiat automobile".
Patinated bronze on marble base.
Signed illegibly.
Measurements: 6 x 31 x 12 cm (sculpture); 4 x 43 x 24 cm (base).
The interesting sculpture of this Fiat automobile represents the fascination with speed, technology and progress that defined interwar Europe, especially within the Art Deco movement and the Italian Futurist influence.
Fiat was then one of the most prestigious brands in motor racing, so this type of work not only celebrated a car, but also the industrial power and modern spirit of the time, combining noble materials such as bronze and marble with a stylized form that conveys dynamism and turns the car into an artistic symbol of modernity and luxury.
