Le messager by fishers

Le messager

This statue can be found on the Quai d'Orsay. Apparently it's a replica of one that was made in bronze and which decorated the Pavillion of Exotic Forests in 1937 during the Exposition Internationale.

Sadly, I can't find much else out about it, except that it was made my Zadkine. - Lucy
Interesting statue and a good capture - shame you're not able to find out more.

@bobhuegel Thanks Bob. Yes, I like it. It's similar in style to the Passion facade on the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona - Lucy
