ABOUT PRODUCTID 15858
The ceramic figurine 'Three Graces in the Bathhouse', attributed to Zdeněk Farnik and created in the Jihokera Bechyně workshops, originates from Czechoslovakia around 1975. This sculptural piece is crafted in formed, glazed ceramic featuring a warm olive-brown hue with a high-gloss sheen. The three elongated female figures appear in a stylized, shallow relief, set within a nearly geometric architectural frame that emphasizes rhythm and balance. Soft, rounded contours of the bodies and delicately modeled flowing hair reflect the visual language of mid-century modernism. A single accent—a muted pink fruit held by one of the Graces—introduces a subtle yet sophisticated color contrast. The glassy, smooth finish allows light to play gently across every detail. The base seamlessly integrates with the main form, ensuring stable positioning. There are no visible defects, only the lightest signs of aging consistent with the era. The overall condition is very good with no signs of restoration. This figurine speaks in the voice of its era—the 1970s—when Czech ceramics explored gentle geometry and clarity of form, drawing on both modernist philosophies and ancient myth. The graceful movement of each figure combines in a harmonious ensemble, evoking the timeless story reframed through the mid-century lens—the glaze catches the light much like rippling water, while the bond between the Graces suggests the intimacy of a historical bathhouse scene.
