EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture titled "Testris" by Dimitri Chiparus, a renowned artist of the early 20th century. Crafted from gilt and cold-painted bronze, this magnificent piece stands tall on an onyx base, measuring 68.3cm in height. The subject of this artwork is Testris, an exotic dancer beautifully captured in a dynamic pose with her arms raised gracefully. Every intricate detail of her costume and outfit has been meticulously carved and cast to perfection. The ornate jewelry adorning her body adds a touch of opulence to the overall composition. Chiparus's expertise in decorative techniques shines through as he expertly combines metalwork with precious stones to create a stunning representation of movement and grace. The purple background enhances the vibrancy of the sculpture while drawing attention to its intricate details. With no person present in the photograph, all focus remains on Testris herself – an embodiment of beauty and artistry frozen in time. This studio shot captures every angle and curve, showcasing Chiparus's skillful craftsmanship. As we admire this exceptional work of art, we are transported back to the early 20th century when European artists like Dimitri Chiparus pushed boundaries and created masterpieces that continue to captivate audiences today.
