FR : Perchée sur un haut tabouret, genoux repliés, une jeune femme tend les mains vers l'avant, comme pour retenir un rêve ou un oiseau invisible ; à ses pieds, de petits éléments animent le socle. Avec La Petite Chimère, René Julien (1937-2016) sublime le corps féminin avec la finesse de modelé et le sens du mouvement qui ont fait de lui une figure majeure de la sculpture figurative belge.

Bronze à patine claire, 31 x 13 x 24 cm (12 1/4 x 5 1/8 x 9 1/2 in). Exemplaire n°1/8 ; dernière édition, les moules n'existant plus. Une sculpture poétique et délicate.


EN : Perched on a tall stool with her knees drawn up, a young woman reaches forward, as if to hold on to a dream or an invisible bird; at her feet, small details bring the base to life. With The Little Chimera, René Julien (1937-2016) celebrates the female body with the fine modelling and sense of movement that made him a major figure of Belgian figurative sculpture.

Light patina bronze, 31 x 13 x 24 cm (12 1/4 x 5 1/8 x 9 1/2 in). Edition 1/8; last edition, as the moulds no longer exist. A poetic, delicate sculpture.
