This image, created by François Pompon, reflects his signature style of stylized simplicity and elegance. It shows a bird in a resting position, with smooth lines and a reduction of detail, which is typical of Pompon’s work. This style emphasizes the essence and attitude of the animal rather than realistic details.
The statue is 4 cm high and can be considered a smaller version or study of his larger animal sculptures. Pompon was known for his ability to capture the harmony and beauty of nature, incorporating influences from Egyptian art and Japonisme into his work. The compactness of this statue makes it perfect for display in smaller spaces and emphasizes its minimalist design.
As part of his oeuvre, this sculpture contributes to the recognition of François Pompon as a master of modern animal sculpture. It would reflect his original work, often in materials such as stone or bronze. The small size and stylized shape make it an attractive art object for collectors or lovers of modern art.
