Child with grapes David d’Angers

While out walking, the sculptor’s young son, Robert, narrowly escaped a viper as he tried to pick a bunch of grapes. This episode inspired the sculptor to create an allegorical work, the symbol of a carefree childhood threatened by the future. He used his own son as a model, ascribing his features to this plump little boy.

I make the figures with marble, a resistant material, which allows the figure to be exposed even outdoors and look even more beautiful over the years.

The statue helps people calm down, not impatient, not hasty. It reminds us there are many difficulties and sadness outside but if we just think about all the goodness, just smile and you will feel the life much easier.

Our figures are made by hand using high quality natural marble stone therefor each piece is unique and may slightly be different in shape and color.

★ Gift idea for your friends and family, for those who are struggling, tired, depressed.
