RELATED LITERATURE
Michel Poletti and Alain Richarme, Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux, Sculpteur: Catalogue Raisonne de l'Oeuvre Edite, (Paris: Editions de l'Amateur, 2003), p. 101, SE 23
LOT NOTES
This lot is a prime example of Carpeaux's work drawing heavily from his own, La Danse (The Dance), a complex and large sculpture commissioned for the facade of Paris' Opera Garnier. La Danse sculpture was unveiled in July 1869, with much criticism for the highly realistic and sensual female nudes. The sculpture was removed shortly after the installation due to the Franco-Prussian War in 1870 and the death of Carpeaux in 1875. Carpeaux studio designed a series of nine reductions and reconfigurations of La Danse, including the Les Trois Graces. The sculpture now resides in the collection of the Musee d'Orsay Paris.
CONDITION
The sculpture is in good age-appropriate condition. Scuffs present to the ankle of one Grace. A loss of the patina to the hair of another.
