Female depictions played a crucial role in the oeuvre of both Hagenauer brothers from the very beginning of their careers. Throughout the years, Karl and Franz Hagenauer created an incredible variety of sculptures centered around the fluid beauty of the female form—ranging from athletic poses to sophisticated character depictions. Expressive modern dance served as an essential source of inspiration for the workshop, yielding iconic modernist designs including their celebrated tribute to Josephine Baker. This patinated brass figure captures a snapshot of dynamic, expressive dance. Supported entirely by one long, elegant standing leg, the form conveys effortless lightness as if floating mid-performance. Her head is turned slightly downwards over the shoulder in semi-profile, radiating quiet tranquility against her energetic pose. Reduced overall and yet rich in subtle detail, the sculpture features clearly discernible elements—including delicate eyelids, fingers, and an indented navel. Mounted on its original turned, dark-stained wooden base bearing authentic stamped marks.
