EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Nymph and Faun group" sculpture, created by French artist Pierre le Faguays in the 20th century. The artwork is made of silvered bronze, resting on a sturdy marble base. With dimensions of 52.1x70.2 cm, it stands as an impressive testament to Faguays' talent. The composition draws inspiration from Roman mythology, featuring a half-man faun protecting a nymph-like figure. The model is posed in an active stance, with her hand gesture suggesting she is defending herself or someone else against potential harm. The art deco movement heavily influenced this piece, evident in its sleek lines and attention to detail. The background features a serene blue color that enhances the overall aesthetic appeal. Faguays' expertise in metalwork shines through this representation of mythical creatures intertwined with human likeness. The sculpture captures motion and physical activity effortlessly - from the faun's running pose to his arm movements while carrying the nymph on his shoulders. This print beautifully preserves Faguays' masterpiece for generations to come, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate its beauty and significance within European art history.
