Henry Parayre (1913-1979)
"Femme couchée" Subject in bronze green patinated plaster
Signed and dated 1929
Dimensions: Height: 23 cm - Width: 70 cm - Depth: 20

A key figure in 20th century Toulouse sculpture, he is known for his unique creations, between modernity and abstraction. His practice of sculpture is distinguished by a bold work of shapes and volumes, with a marked interest in the simplification of lines and contours.
This sculpture by Henri Parayre presents a human figure lying in a resting posture, which evokes both serenity and introspection. Made of plaster, the work benefits from a green patina that accentuates the soft and rounded shapes of the body.
The relaxed attitude of the model, the head resting on a folded arm, suggests a moment of inner peace, while offering a great technical mastery of volumes and human musculature.
The work invites contemplation: the delicacy of the forms highlights the sensuality of the human body, while remaining marked by great sobriety. This sculpture testifies to Parayre's interest in the study of the body, with an approach that combines classicism and modernity.
