Beautiful bronze, signed Dalou on base, late 19th century, astonishing little sculpture, dream body, like ancient Venus, but showing the hesitation of young woman, with wet finger, to choose the forbidden apple, which she inspects in her left hand.This subject: temptation, is rarely found among the series of characters deeply attached to work that the sculptor was fond of, published in this dimension.
Jules Dalou, born in Paris on December 31, 1838 and died in the same city on April 15, 1902, is a French sculptor endowed with an extraordinary talent and work force, which life, la Commune, exile have shaken up a lot.
