This sculpture was a favorite of ours. The sculpture depicted her own self as the nude woman, and the man is her sculpting teacher / advisor whom she was truly in love with in real life. He is being carried away from her by his other partener, as was the case in real life too. The artist ended up with many mental disorders and she died in a insanasylum (if this word is not spelled right, someone leave a comment about how to spell it correctly) without him many years later. Fascinating the stuff you learn when you travel.

Cette oeuvre est de Camille CLAUDEL. Grande artiste sculpteur. Je le précise car il y a très trop peu de femme sculpteur reconnue.
Véro et son message culturel.... (mais il faut dire que j'adore cette femme et artiste.)
