ABOUT
Raymond Guerbe (1894–1955) was a French sculptor known for his elegant and stylised representations of the human form, particularly female figures. Influenced by Art Deco aesthetics, Guerbe worked primarily in bronze and stone, capturing grace, movement, and sensuality in his sculptures. He was active during the early to mid-20th century and exhibited at major Parisian salons, including the Salon des Artistes Français. Guerbe's work often reflected classical themes with a modern twist, combining idealized beauty with fluid lines. Though not widely known today, his pieces remain appreciated by collectors for their refinement, harmony, and embodiment of interwar artistic elegance.
