Isidore Margulies (1921-2008), Elsa, Bronze Sculpture - This contemporary figurative sculpture by Isidore Margulies (Austrian/American, 1921-2008) is titled Elsa, dated 1977. The work is cast in bronze with a dark chocolate brown patina and depicts a nude female figure in a dynamic, low-profile reclining pose. The subject is rendered with her upper body resting on her folded arms and her head bowed, while her legs are tucked and splayed behind her in a fluid arrangement. The style is modern figurative realism, emphasizing smooth surfaces and naturalistic anatomical contours. The sculpture is mounted on a rectangular plinth of light-colored, porous travertine stone, which provides a textured contrast to the smooth bronze. The artist's incised signature, the edition number 7/10, the date, and the title Elsa are inscribed on the underside of the figure's arm.
