Description:
Art Deco bronze sculpture depicting a fisherman standing in a small boat while hauling in a fishing net. The figure is shown wearing a broad hat and leaning forward with naturalistic posture, conveying the physical effort of drawing the net from the water. The composition combines a dark brown patina for the figure with a contrasting green patina on the boat and net, creating visual depth and highlighting the sculptural details.

The base bears the “SF” foundry mark for Susse Frères (Paris), one of the prominent French art foundries active from the 19th through early 20th century. The sculpture appears to be unsigned by the artist.

Dimensions: H:29n W:16in 

Condition:
Appears to be in good overall condition with surface wear and natural patina consistent with age. Minor scuffs and oxidation visible in areas. Please review photographs for details.
