The mythological figures Orpheus and Eurydice by French sculptor Mathurin Moreau (1822-1912).
The sculpture captures a poignant moment from the Greek myth of Orpheus, the musician, and his beloved wife, Eurydice. It depicts Orpheus leading Eurydice from the underworld, a scene fraught with tension as he is forbidden to look back at her.
Mathurin Moreau was a prominent 19th-century French sculptor known for his classical and allegorical works in bronze and marble. Moreau's works, including "Orpheus and Eurydice," are characterized by their classical style, attention to detail, and the expressive beauty of their subjects, often featuring delicate drapery and tender expressions.
