Légende

The Abduction of Helen, 1683-1686. The greatest French baroque sculptor, Puget, created this model for a monumental marble group to stand in the gardens of the royal chateau at Versailles. Although many variants and copies have been made of this piece, this bronze appears to be the only seventeenth-century cast, probably made under Puget's supervision in Toulon in the south of France.
