Its articulated shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees and ankles allow the figure to be arranged in a wide variety of poses. Areas of rubbing reveal the warmer wood beneath, giving the surface a naturally aged, studio-worn character. The joints remain movable, although a few are slightly stiff with age, without affecting its overall function or appeal.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eFigures like this were traditionally used by artists to study proportion, posture and movement. The fully articulated construction gives the piece a playful quality: it can be rearranged into a multitude of poses, almost inviting interaction, while the simple construction and dark finish give it an appealingly graphic character. Its compact scale makes it ideal for a desk, bookshelf or cabinet of curiosities, styled alongside art books, drawings or other studio objects. The pose can be adjusted from time to time, giving the piece a lively, ever-changing sculptural presence. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age.\u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 13\" high x 3½\" wide x 1½\" thick \u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 33cm high x 9cm wide x 4cm thick\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54911647285586,"sku":"26000","price":335.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC09160_2b47ebc7-ec08-4cba-a4b5-15d563f334ed.jpg?v=1790852658","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/vintage-french-black-painted-articulated-artist-s-mannequin-13","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
