- ORPHEUS Neoclassical White Marble Sculpture 19' CenturyLocated in Rome, ITUnique Carrara white marble finely carved sculpture of Orpheus , Mythological personification of the eternal love and art.

It is likely that these were made in his workshop at 106, rue Vielle du Temple, which specialised in the production of bronze artifacts and clocks. Dasson's success was such that he was made a Chevalier de la Légion d'honneur in 1883 and was awarded the Grand Prix Artistique at the Paris 1889 Exposition Universelle.
