A rare and compelling cast by Toussaint Riendeau, this limited edition bronze numbered 1 of 9 presents a modernist seated figure with a tablet resting on the right arm, modeled with Riendeau’s signature abstraction and tactile surface. The faceless head and simplified anatomy concentrate the eye on form, mass, and gesture, while the richly worked skin reveals an intentionally varied texture that catches light across a hand-applied gold patina with dark undertones, giving the sculpture a powerful architectural presence from every angle. Executed by lost-wax technique with a closed, weighty body and a subtly tiered seat, the figure’s forward-set legs and angled torso create a dynamic silhouette that reads beautifully in the round, as seen in the multiple views. The lower edge is incised with the artist’s name Riendeau, the edition is the desirable number 1 of 9, and the dimensions are 4 1/4 x 5 1/4 x 9 1/4 inches tall, an ideal collector’s scale for a pedestal, console, or vitrine. The overall condition is excellent with intentional texturing and patina modulation throughout, along with minor touch points and natural oxidation consistent with artist’s finish and careful handling; the work displays exceptional luster and depth without distraction. For the connoisseur of contemporary bronze sculpture, modernist and Brutalist art, and intimate figural studies in metal, this Toussaint Riendeau offers museum quality craftsmanship, rarity, and commanding sculptural presence in an edition size that ensures true exclusivity. <br> <br>
