EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating ivory and bronze sculpture by renowned French artist Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse. Standing at a height of 60 cm, this exquisite piece of art showcases the artist's exceptional talent and attention to detail. In this photo print, we are presented with a stunning depiction of a female statue engrossed in her reading. The intricate polychrome detailing brings life to the sculpture, highlighting the delicate features of the figure and adding depth to her flowing costume. The serene expression on the reader's face evokes a sense of tranquility and introspection, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in their own world of literature. As she holds an open book delicately in her hands, one can almost feel the weight of knowledge and wisdom contained within its pages. This artwork captures not only the beauty but also the power that lies within literature. It serves as a reminder that books have the ability to transport us to different worlds, ignite our imagination, and broaden our horizons. Acquired by Leeds Museums and Galleries through generous support from Leeds Art Fund, "The Reader" now finds its home among other masterpieces in their collection. This print from Bridgeman Images allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate Carrier-Belleuse's remarkable craftsmanship while celebrating the timeless allure of reading.
