In the main courtyard of the Donjon de Vez, Antoine Bourdelle’s Allegories asserts its symbolic power. Comprising three monumental bronze figures, it embodies eloquence, strength and freedom, universal values designed for General Alvear’s equestrian monument in Buenos Aires. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Allegories: eloquence, strength and freedom<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Classic heritage and modernity<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A pupil of Rodin and master of Giacometti, Antoine Bourdelle drew his inspiration from the order and harmony of ancient sculpture. With All\u00e9gories, he revisits these ideals through a powerful, uncluttered style, anchoring his figures in a modern, timeless monumentality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Figures of energy and balance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The three allegories each possess a distinct energy: eloquence asserts itself through gesture, strength imposes its robustness and freedom soars with grace. Far from being mere symbols, these figures embody timeless human values, magnified by bronze. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
