Object description :

"Bust Sculpture La Rieuse Or Bacchante With Roses N°2 Jean-baptiste Carpeaux"

Large standing sculpture "La Rieuse" or "Bacchante aux Roses n°2" patinated terracotta proof after Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux (1827-1875), symbolizing joy, freedom, an ode to movement... in the guise of Miss Miette, actress at the Palais Royal and muse of this replica. This copy is a reissue taken from the famous controversial group "La danse" which adorns the facade of the Paris Opera and which earned Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux the wrath of propriety for its audacity, sensuality and modernism. Signed JB Carpeaux, Terracotta France stamp monogrammed LS Height: 58 cm Bibliography: Michel Poletti and Alain Richarme, Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux sculptor, catalog raisonné of the published work, Paris, 2003, P.107, n°BU 5.
