Originally sculpted in 1928 while still a student in Paris, this bronze was cast by Arno Breker from his original model as a small edition of 50 pieces in the late 1960's. Breker was a friend of the sculptor Aristide Maillol, and the modernist influence of his work is evident in this piece. The bronze is solid cast, measures 6 3/8" tall, and has a black-brown patina. The script signature of the sculptor is stamped in the bottom, as well as the monogram of the foundry.
