EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture titled "Crouching Flora" created around 1863 in French Paris. Crafted from terracotta, this artwork stands as a testament to the artistic prowess of its creator, Carpeaux. Commissioned for an important public project, it was intended to embellish the exterior of the Louvre's Pavillon de Flore. The sculpture itself is a high relief masterpiece depicting Flora, the goddess personifying the benefits and realm of spring and plants. With meticulous attention to detail, Carpeaux captures her crouched form in a moment that implies life under the regime of the Second Empire. Measuring at an impressive overall size of 8 1/2 x 3 3/4 x 4 1/4 feet (216 x 95 x108 cm), this artwork demands attention with its grandeur and intricate design. The triumph depicted in this piece resonates through time as it graces one of Paris' most iconic landmarks. As you gaze upon this print from Liszt Collection, let yourself be transported back to mid-19th century France where art flourished under imperial patronage. Appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its historical significance within French art history.
