About the sculpture
This sculpture is a copy of a famous work by Adriaen de Vries now in the Louvre. De Vries worked at Giambologna’s studio in Italy and for Emperor Rudolf II in Prague. As a result he enjoyed considerable fame abroad, while remaining relatively obscure in the Netherlands. This copy was commissioned in 1890 for the Rijksmuseum garden.
