L'effort is a powerful Art Deco era sculpture of an athletic man trying to move a heavy stone. Created by Swiss artist Gustave Buchet (1888-1963) and a rare example of his work in this medium. Buchet is best known as a painter who first studied in Geneva and then moved to Paris. This heavy statue stands on a black marble pedestal with the signature on it. The statue itself is made of 'spelter', a zinc/lead alloy. The stone the man moves is made of marble. In good vintage condition. Some damage on the base. View all photos for a good impression.
