THE GIRL FROM BOU-SAADA




Dropping flower petals for ever, in a farewell attitude, this "Jeune Fille de Bou-Saada" which, in fact, is the title of this sculpture, is on the tomb of the orientalist painter Gustave Guillaumet in the cemetery of Montmartre in Paris.
The sculptor was Louis-Ernest Barrias (1841-1905)

  1. Great pictures Angel; it is a particularly good work and one of my favourites. Best of luck with your blog, I will be a frequent visitor and will put a link on mine to here if I may.
