Joan of Arc sculpture, bronze, height 50 cm, France, early 20th century

A powerful and emotionally charged French bronze statue representing Joan of Arc, the national heroine of France. She stands in serene yet commanding poise, holding a large waving banner — a removable element — with her gaze fixed in quiet determination. She wears stylized armor with a star at her chest, a flowing cape, and rests one leg beside a helmet placed at her feet, symbolizing readiness and sacrifice.

This exceptional sculpture is signed "A. Moreau," almost certainly referring to Auguste Moreau — a renowned 19th–early 20th-century French sculptor, famous for his dynamic and finely cast figurines. The Moreau family of artists, including Louis Auguste Moreau and Hippolyte Moreau, were celebrated for their detailed bronze and marble works often depicting mythological, allegorical, and historical subjects. Auguste Moreau in particular was known for pieces exactly like this one — romantic, expressive, and masterfully cast, often tied to the Art Nouveau spirit.

This piece is made of solid bronze with a deep patina and remarkable casting quality. It measures 50 cm in height and approximately 20 cm in width — a very displayable and impactful size for collectors and interiors alike.

Comparable bronze figurines signed by A. Moreau, especially ones depicting iconic subjects like Joan of Arc, typically sell between €2,000 and €5,000 depending on scale, finish, and rarity. At auctions and reputable antique venues, even higher prices are often reached.
