Description
The genius of the dance, bronze sculpture by Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux (1827-1875), Editions Susse Frères in Paris.
Detail of the famous sculpture that adorns the facade of the Opera Garnier in Paris. If the original work was on the point of being withdrawn so much it made scandal, the many reductions in bronze knew an immense success.
