Work referenced and very nice rating. Very decorative on a living room console or on a desk. A scholar from the city of Toulouse, he entered the School of Fine Arts in Paris in the workshops of the sculptors of the French falguière and Antonin mercié.

After having many official commissions, for which he obtained awards, he became director of biscuit works at the sevre factory from 1919 to 1927.

Fame is originally an allegorical Greek deity personifying the character of public or social recognition. It is also known as pheme or fama.

Fame is a winged deity, a daughter of Gaia with many eyes and mouths, allowing her to learn about the secrets of mortals and to disclose them. These characteristics made him a feared and respected deity.

It is the messenger of zeus or the subsidy of hermes, this last trait was mainly used by the Romans who spread and supplemented its character. With the Romans, the deity lost its monstrous appearance to that of a beautiful winged woman often depicted with. A laurel wreath or a trunk. This large neoclassical sculpture is from the art nouveau period; the goddess is beautifully represented. The shapes are thin, slender, and elegant.

The hairstyle is sophisticated and perfectly enhances the pretty head wear and dignified face! This mythological allegory of fame, success and power is presented as a young woman. Voluptuous, with supple gestures, graceful and light.

A foot on the world, she presents, well high in her right hand, the. Laurel, symbol of honor and success, that she will lay on the heads of the glorious and powerful characters of this world that travels with wings. She is moving, wings unfolded, she has so much to do because the world is so deserving. It is a piece of great elegance and poetry. Will no doubt be the pleasure of another collector or an art lover with knowledge for an original, neat and cultural interior decoration.
