Detailed description

Auguste Moreau a bronze statue titled Persée has another example, with identical iconographic and formal solutions. The hero's figure appears here in a watchful, assessing moment, where the movement signifies attention rather than action. The emphasis is on the distribution of body weight, the plastic treatment of the clothing, and the unity of the overall effect. The composition consistently retains the character of the original formulation within the series.
