Clay Figurine, “La Cruche Cassée”, France
About the Item
Clay figurine, “La Cruche Cassée”. It represents a young figure with long, wavy hair, with an introspective and serene look. The torso is partially uncovered, with the right arm resting on the head, while the left rests gently on a fountain-like structure. The figure wears a cloak that covers the legs down to the feet, falling in a fluid and natural manner.
The figure stands next to a decorated fountain, which features sculpted details reinforcing the classical symbolism of the piece. Above the fountain, there is a jar, referring to the title of the sculpture itself, which means "The Broken Jar".
A brilliant sculpture, with connection for lighting.
