Clodion was a French sculptor active in the late 18th century, known for his works that often depicted themes from mythology and nature, with a focus on sensuality and movement.



The addition of a red marble stand enhances the overall presentation of the sculpture, providing a rich contrast to the bronze and emphasizing the elegance of the figures. The use of marble not only supports the sculpture but also adds a touch of luxury and sophistication, which was characteristic of the neoclassical style that influenced Clodion's work. See less
