Offert par l'artiste au propriétaire actuel

The three figures are not fixed to the base. The bronze presents signs of natural aging. There are few very light scratches on the base, coherent with the moving figures. This work is in good original condition.

Notice de catalogue
"Le visage de ces femmes paraît intemporel, sans origine historique précise. Mes sculptures sont faites pour avoir plusieurs vies et personnalités au cours des saisons, elles s'intègrent aux couleurs éclatantes de l'automne, à la neige et la lumière glacée de l'hiver, aux fleurs printanières, à la fraîcheur des arbres en fleurs et finalement à la plénitude de l'été."
Manolo Valdes (en marge de l'exposition Manolo Valdes, Place Vendôme, 8 septembre-5 octobre 2016) 

Catalogue note
“The face of these women appears timeless, without precise historical origin. My sculptures are made to have several lives and personalities over the seasons, they merge with the bright colours of Autumn, with snow and the icy light of winter, with spring flowers, with the freshness of trees in flower, and finally with the fullness of summer.”
