Jean-Alexandre Falguiere
French (1831-1900)

Portrait of a Young Boy, ca. 1870
Marble

Purchase with funds from the Phoenix Society, 1996.4

This portrait of a young boy recalls the simple,
elegant marble structure of classical antiquity.
The egg-like shape of the head echoes the purity
of the youthful subject.
