"Petite fille sautant à la corde". Galerie Madoura Vallauris 1953.

The sculpture "Petite fille sautant à la corde," seen here at the Galerie Madoura in Vallauris, 1953. The stylized bronze features a figure with a large, flat head reminiscent of an African mask and a rounded, basket-like torso. Its hands grasp two gnarled, vine-like forms that rise from the base to represent a jump rope. The work is mounted on a plinth and illuminated by a single dome lamp, with the gallery’s parquet floor and a spiral staircase visible in the background.
