Embracing Couple Sculpture

This item is a modern sculpture depicting a couple embracing, with the female figure reclining against a textured, light-colored abstract form. The figures appear to be cast in a dark, possibly bronze or resin material with a matte, almost black finish, suggesting an antique or patinated appearance. The female figure is nude, rendered with naturalistic curves and musculature, her head tilted upwards and her left arm extended horizontally. The male figure is positioned directly behind her, his head nestled into her neck/shoulder area, also appearing nude. The figures are dynamically posed, conveying intimacy and connection. They are integrated into a roughly textured, off-white or cream-colored mass, which could be a type of plaster, ceramic, or composite stone material, designed to evoke natural rock or a abstract broken form. This light-colored element provides a strong contrast to the dark figures, drawing attention to their forms. The entire sculptural ensemble is mounted on a solid, rectangular base made of a dark, possibly black wood or a composite material with a glossy finish, elevating the artwork. The base is simple and unadorned, allowing the sculpture itself to be the focal point. There are no immediately visible manufacturer's marks, signatures, or specific dates on the visible surfaces, suggesting it might be contemporary or a decorative piece. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality, with smooth transitions in the figures and a consistent texture on the abstract form. No significant damage such as chips, cracks, or repairs are apparent from the image, but a thorough in-person inspection would be needed to confirm the precise condition and material integrity. The piece likely dates from the late 20th to early 21st century, given its contemporary aesthetic.
