This beautiful bronze statue, standing 42 cm (approximately 16.5 inches) tall, features clean lines and a unique, mysterious face. While its design suggests a Dutch influence, it was likely made in Italy. The statue was created in 1935 for a jubilee celebration, as indicated by the inscription:
“Aan den Heer FRITZ VAEREWIJCK ter gelegenheid zijner 25 Jarig Jubelfeest.
Mr en Mme Vekemans 18-11-35”
This inscription commemorates the 25th anniversary of Fritz Vaerewijck, gifted by Mr. and Mrs. Vekemans. The statue's elegant and enigmatic design, combined with its historical significance, makes it a remarkable piece of art and a meaningful keepsake from a special celebration.
