It was originally made in 1874, but moulded in bronze in 1888 after a model in wax which has been lost since. The original was made of plaster and was exhibited at the Salon in Paris in 1882. A larger scale statue in bronze is in Musee d'Orsay in Paris. Artist probably A. Cain.Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04041866872571178817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291822984443127930.post-53782695798550331482009-01-29T08:00:00.000-05:002009-01-29T08:00:00.000-05:00Thanks to everyone for your kind words.Will: This ...Thanks to everyone for your kind words.<BR/><BR/>Will: This is what was on the statue itself: A.
