Description |
English: The model for this work was Dina Vierny. According to John Rewald, Maillol developed the pose for the monument by cutting up a plaster model he had developed for his 1912 monument to Cézanne and subtly rearranging the parts. The artist used the plaster cast for this monument to create another work without the billowing drapery entitled L'Air. |
