Visage de jeune femme émergeant du marbre, attribué à Fortunado Gori

Un visage de jeune femme sort d'un bloc laissé brut. Le contraste organise tout : autour, la pierre garde les coups de l'outil, rugueuse et bosselée ; au centre, le front, les joues et l'épaule nue sont polis jusqu'à la douceur. Des mèches longues et souples encadrent le visage et se fondent sur les côtés dans la matière brute, tandis qu'un drapé glisse sur l'épaule. Le regard se perd de côté. Le marbre, d'un blanc laiteux, prend par endroits une teinte plus chaude, et la lumière s'y pose sans dureté.

Formé à l'académie de Florence, Fortunato Gori s'installe à Paris, où il prend le nom d'Affortunato Gory. Il expose au Salon des artistes français de 1902 à 1923 et est connu pour des figures féminines Art nouveau, où le bronze s'associe volontiers au marbre, à l'albâtre ou à l'ivoire. Il meurt à Paris en 1925 ; sa naissance, elle, varie selon les sources. La fiche orthographie son nom Fortunado Gori et lui attribue cette sculpture, sans que l'identité entre l'auteur de la pièce et le sculpteur documenté soit établie.

Read in English

A young woman's face emerges from a block left rough. Contrast governs everything: around it, the stone keeps the blows of the tool, rugged and uneven; at the centre, brow, cheeks and bare shoulder are polished to softness. Long, supple locks frame the face and melt at the sides into the raw material, while drapery slips over the shoulder. The gaze drifts to one side. The marble, a milky white, warms in places, and light settles on it without hardness.

Trained at the Florence academy, Fortunato Gori settled in Paris, where he took the name Affortunato Gory. He exhibited at the Salon des artistes français from 1902 to 1923 and is known for Art Nouveau female figures in which bronze is often combined with marble, alabaster or ivory. He died in Paris in 1925; his date of birth varies between sources. The listing spells his name Fortunado Gori and attributes this sculpture to him, though the identity of the piece's author with the documented sculptor is not established.
