La Chimere

Inspired by the 1876 painting by Gustave Moreau, La Chimere depicts a winged creature leaping into the air with a human maiden clinging to its neck. Crafted from polystone, this mythological statue is hand painted to resemble marble. The term chimera refers to a fictional hybrid beast composed of disparate parts, as this being has the head and torso of a man with feathered wings sprouting from his back, and the body, legs, and tail of a horse. The maiden is draped in diaphanous veils and her curly hair cascades over her shoulders. La Chimere is an intriguing work of fantasy that will make an enchanting gift for any fan of art history or mythology.
