French Provincial Copper Folk Art Rooster Late 19th/Early 20th Century
A charming French folk art cockerel, hand-formed in sheet copper with a beautifully timeworn surface. Its sculptural rounded body, cut and folded wings, and serrated comb draw on the long tradition of provincial weathervanes.
The surface has developed a soft verdigris patina, with warm copper tones emerging through years of exposure. There is a pleasing balance between naĆÆve simplicity and considered designāthe silhouette bold, the detailing restrained but full of character.
Mounted as a sculptural object on a later stand, it would sit within a garden setting among planting, or equally as an interior piece where its form and surface can be appreciated as art.
