the bronze modelled as a figure of a crouching nude with head turned down and slightly to the right, holding a conch shell up to his left ear, wearing a cloth cap and with a small fishing net in his lap, on a naturalistic canted rectangular moulded integral base, signed "JB Carpeaux Rome 1857" and with "propriete Carpeaux" and eagle mark, 34.5cm high Footnotes: Carpeaux was a student at the École des Beaux Arts and won the Prix de Rome in 1854. Inspired by the old master sculptors of the Italian Renaissance and influenced by his master Francoise Rude (1784 -1855), he moved to Rome in 1854 where he worked until 1861. It was in Rome that he developed his signature style utilising the principles of baroque art while depicting everyday subject matter.
