Bronze "The Girl with the Bird and the Shell" After Pigalle
About the Item
Sculpture in patinated bronze representing a seated child feeding a bird, after Pigalle.
The original "the girl with the bird and the shell" is a counterpart of "the child with the cage" by Jean-Baptiste Pigalle.
The naked child is sitting on the grass and to his right a shell. A form of sweetness emanates from the child's eyes. His innocent face breathes the happiness of feeding the bird.
Its counterpart, "Child with a cage" represents a naked girl with an open cage in her hand. The bird has flown away. The child with a saddened look at the sky. Image of the naivety of children, the first pains, far from the sorrows of life.
