The artwork is a photogravure reproduction of an exquisite ivory sculpture crafted by Emile Philippe Scailliet, dating back to the late 19th or early 20th century. The subject of this alluring piece is Phryne, a renowned courtesan who lived during Ancient Greece around 371 BC. Standing in full length, her naked form exudes grace and sensuality, capturing the essence of feminine beauty. The delicate details of the sculpture are beautifully preserved through this photo mechanical process. Originally featured in "La Revue De L'Art Ancien et Moderne". Volume XIV from July-December 1903, this print transports us to a time when art nouveau was flourishing.
