Cold Girl Bonded Marble Statue (1783) by Jean-Antoine Houdon (1741-1828), Musee Fabre, Montpelier, France. Unclothed, save for the wrap thrown over her head and shoulders, this allegory of winter stands near a cracked vase whose exterior is covered with spilled water, turned to ice. Created in bonded natural marble to reflect the original, Houdon's work portrays unadorned naturalism.3 Wx3 Dx10 H. 1 lb.
