Emmanuel Villanis created some 200 to 250 pieces. Known for busts and full body statues. The bronzes were mainly cast by the Societé de Bronzes de Paris.
Villanis was inspired by women. He dedicated almost his complete works to them.
His style can always be recognised by his use of hollowed out eyeballs. The name of the statue can usually be found on the base in scrolled script and the signature of Emmanuel Villanis is always visible and legible.
