Large bronze sculpture, signed on the base by the renowned artist M. Constant and dating from the end of the 19th century. This work of art represents a standing man, holding a pipe near his mouth. Dressed in a hat, a shirt with rolled-up sleeves, a vest and an apron, the worker seems to be enjoying a moment of rest. The meticulous details of the sculpture, from the folds of the clothing to the realistic expression on the face, are evidence of the artist’s talent and mastery. The base of the statue imitates a rocky ground. This bronze sculpture is a rare piece due to its large size, the story it tells and its quality of execution. Maurice Constant Favre (1875-1919) was a French sculptor and engraver, known for his works in bronze. His creations were exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français from 1896 to 1914. He created remarkable sculptures, such as "Le Preux", a bronze statue representing a Knight Templar. Maurice Constant is recognized for his talent and skill in capturing minute details and realistic expressions in his works.
