Rare Art Deco Bust "Olga" – Lilli Baitz Berlin (ca. 1920) – Signed Museum Piece

Discover a rare masterpiece from the heyday of European Art Deco: the "Olga" bust from the renowned studio of Lilli Baitz . This object is no simple doll, but a handcrafted art object that perfectly embodies the dreamy aesthetic of the 1920s.

The bust is crafted from a fine composite, finished with the refined painting typical of Baitz. Note in particular the side-glaring eyes; the refined, sideways glance that made this series world-famous among collectors. The articulated arms are marked "Germany," confirming that this is an early example from the studio's Berlin period, before production moved to Austria.

Although these busts originally formed the basis for exclusive boudoir dolls, this example now presents itself as a powerful, solitary sculpture. The absence of a fabric body accentuates the anatomical precision and theatrical presence of the face and arms. A unique opportunity for collectors of early artist dolls or enthusiasts of rare Art Deco curiosities. The authentic signature "Olga Baitz" is located on the back.
