Claude Michel Clodion (1738–1814)

Claude Michel Clodion's oeuvre prominently features compositions on the theme of bacchanals, showcasing nymphs, fauns, and putti, which reflect the decorative approach of Rococo sculpture. The presented bronze relates to this thematic circle: the assembly of figures is organized circularly, built on loosely interconnected movements. The emphasis is on the plastic rhythm and the delicate modeling of surfaces, without narrative constraints.
