Medardo Rosso (Italian/French, 1858-1928)

“The Concierge” 1883

Bronze, 35×34×23cm

Rosso did not produce many works and less than 40 series remain today. His subjects were ordinary people, women, children and the elderly, and in scenes from everyday life he extracted a momentary expression, as if it was a sketch.
