About 'Bronze statue signed Moreau 19ct'

This object is a bronze sculpture entitled "Il Pleut!", created by Auguste Moreau. The name of the work means "It's raining!" in French.

The sculpture depicts a young figure, probably a girl, who appears to be walking through the rain with an umbrella in her hand. The image radiates a playful and dynamic atmosphere, with realistic details such as the wet clothes sticking to the body and the natural body position.

The base of the statue is decorated with an inscription on a metal plate, on which the title and the name of the artist are engraved. The style and finish of the statue fit in with late 19th-century French academic sculpture, in which artists such as Auguste Moreau were known for their graceful, romantic and naturalistic works.
