Product details
Retour de Plage is an elegant bronze sculpture created in 2007 by the renowned French sculptor JOSEFA at her studio in France. The artwork portrays a graceful female figure in a relaxed, playful stance, capturing the carefree spirit and lightness of a summer day by the sea. The elongated silhouette and fluid posture emphasize movement, femininity, and the artist’s distinctive figurative style.
The sculpture reflects JOSEFA’s refined artistic language, where elegance, balance, and subtle sensuality combine to celebrate the beauty of the modern woman. The dynamic pose and expressive modeling of the figure create a sense of vitality and poetic charm.
Cast in bronze at the Venturi Foundry, the sculpture belongs to a limited edition of 30, each piece individually numbered and signed by the artist. The present sculpture is numbered 20/30. Each artwork is engraved with the edition number, the foundry stamp, and the artist’s signature, and is accompanied by its original Certificate of Authenticity.
With its rich patina and refined proportions, Retour de Plage functions both as a collectible artwork and as a sophisticated decorative object for contemporary interiors, curated art collections, and gallery-inspired spaces.

About Designer
“The French sculptor celebrates the modern woman in her vibrant and seductive sculptures, with grace, lightness, and imagination.”
Josepha was born in 1950 in southwestern France and lives in the rural surroundings of Drôme.
Drawing on her background as a fashion designer, Josepha has preserved a deep desire to highlight the female body. In her sculptures, she explores the full breadth of this universe, creating works imbued with a special atmosphere of grace and lightness.
Josepha portrays women in all their splendor by emphasizing their femininity, sensuality, tenderness, and their exuberant or gentle nature. Her figures live, move, breathe, and have nothing in common with classical academic art. If one had to choose a patron for her, it would inevitably be Degas.
Her sculptures embody complete grace, absolute lightness, delicacy, and the beauty of a dancer’s body.
“I like to idealize. My work is a form of relaxation, and every new idea is born like a game, like a beautiful story.” — Josepha
