L’Amerique
du Sud
The
sculptor of L’Amerique du Sud was Aime Millet.
This
is the last of my sketches from my own sketches and reference photos of the Six
Continent Sculptures at the entrance of the Musee D’Orsay. There are two
sculptures I didn’t get to during my few days in Paris last week, L'Océanie and
L'Europe. I may at some point do sketches of the remaining two from photos on
the Musee D’Orsay website, just to have sketches of all six.
9”x
12” fountain pen and chalk on toned grey paper
Formidable, oh I love the difference in continents you really are magnificent, please please do the others too, after you know a break...please, i love them so
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteMore of the credit should go to the sculptors. They were all different, yet are similar enough to have all been done by one.
South American oh brilliant...I love these so much, I can't wait for the other continent Mothers...I knew you were talented, but I never realized just how talented you were...this is the golden cup wow
ReplyDeleteI’m not sure when I’ll get to the last two. I have so many other things at the moment I want/have to do.
DeleteVery nice series, beautiful sketch.Hope you are enjoying your stay...
ReplyDeleteThank you
DeleteAm enjoying visit. Don’t want to leave☺
I have really enjoyed these too, and hope to see the final two soon.
ReplyDeleteThis one struck me as a Roman Goddess...probably something in her costume, hairstyle, etc.
She is just amazing! :)
I’ll get to the last two eventually. She does have that goddess look☺
DeleteThank you
Yes, very demanded posture almost an akimbo....but still a positive look. ~ Love these series.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how long the model sat for the sculptor? I wonder how much was her, how much was the sculptor?
