"Winter (One of the Four Seasons)." Terracotta sculpture depicting a child personifying Winter, shown clutching a bundle of sticks and partially draped, modeled with academic naturalism in the Neoclassical taste. The expressive figure is animated by soft movement and carefully articulated anatomy, the surface retaining a warm aged patina consistent with 18th-century studio terracotta. Mid 18th century. Sculpture: 43" x 14". Stand: 34 1/2" x 19 1/2" x 18 3/4". Provenance: Purchased in France prior to 2009.
