Georges LAVROFF (1895-1991) - Statuette, CERVIDE - 7 cm - Silvered bronze, Art Deco - 1930

This silvered bronze statuette named "Cervide" by Georges Lavroff represents an elegant example of Art Deco sculpture from the 1930s. Lavroff, active in the early to mid-20th century, often captured naturalistic and stylized animal or human subjects, contributing to the decorative arts movement centered on geometric volumes and streamlined forms. Crafted from bronze with a silvered finish, the statuette likely depicts a deer or similar cervid, a common motif symbolizing grace and natural beauty. Art Deco sculptures from this era were prized for their blend of craftsmanship, modernist aesthetics, and fine materials, typically displayed as decorative objects in homes or salons. The compact size, approximately 7 cm in height, makes it suitable for collectors interested in miniature bronzes reflecting the period's elegance and attention to detail.
