L’Asie
While in Paris over the last few days, almost
a whole day was spent at the Musee D’Orsay. This sketch is of a sculpture by
Alexandre Falguiere’s. L’Asie is one of a group of six sculptures called the
Six Continents near the entrance to the museum.

ReplyDeleteI did enjoy the Musee D’Orsay the best of the museums visited. Though the beauty was almost everywhere I looked in Paris.

Wow, she has such a commanding presence, doesn't she?
ReplyDeleteI really love this...and I wonder which continent she represents...Asia, perhaps?
I’m sure it’s Asia too.
