Sculptures

Bronzes

The three bronze Eves

€44,000.00

This large stoneware piece was presented in 2014 as part of the exhibitions "MUSEE A CIEL OUVERT" in Saulieu, "EQUILIBRE" in the Cour d'Honneur of the Sorbonne- Panthéon and during a ‘Printemps de la Sculpture in Chantilly.. A collector friend commissioned me to cast a bronze. The foundryman applied a patina very close to the original savannah-colored...

Bronzes

Giraffe and her three daughters

€5,900.00

I created this sculpture in memory of my impressions of a girl born in the 1950s. At that time the pater familias was all powerful and a certain feminine solidarity was then necessary to grow without too much damage. This sculpture could have been called the GYNECE (Greek term that has become generic for women's apartment, as opposed to the Andron for men...

Bronzes

Elephant boat

€10,500.00

Here is the bronze taken from the original clay created for the exhibition “BETES A MUSEE”. A crowd of elephants facing the sea on a fragile boat. Some spontaneously call this sculpture the Ark, a Noah's Ark which would house only elephants. Why not ? “To gain height, it is sometimes necessary to be able to count on others and, in a place largely devoted...

Bronzes

On the trunk

€9,200.00

This large sculpture joins the “Elephant and little girl” series in which they exchange glances. It is a very readable piece and imposes itself by a circle composition. The slate gray patina enhances the texture of the animal's skin.

Bronzes

Not too fast

€7,900.00

The care that elephant groups take in the education and protection of baby elephants is well known. This matriarch avoids the fall of her little one with tenderness and humor. Everything that should govern the education of our little ones ! The position of the elephants is reinforced by the shape of the promontory which evokes a bit of a wave. A sculpture...

Big horn to horn

€32,000.00

The original bronze clay was presented for the first time in the remarkable garden of the Tool Museum at WIT DIT JOLI VILLAGE. The first bronze edition is now exhibited in the park of Château De Luynes, in the company of the BIG ACROBATS. It is an animal sculpture all in a circle punctuated by the play of horns, horns that poachers will not come and cut!...

Great sokatira

I have returned to this theme several times. “Sokatira” means “tug of war” in Basque. These “tusk ropes” allow me to play on compositions while extending and you just have to watch baby elephants play to realize that they could participate in Basque games. Warm brown patina with lighter backgrounds Sold Out

Girafe enceinte

Sold out As a child, I was already much bigger than the other children and “giraffe” was my nickname in the school playground. In fact, this resemblance pleased me. This peaceful animal has a lanky grace, airy and wild and with large soft eyes. It is one of the rare animals which dates back to prehistoric times and one with which we can identify...

Great acrobats

€76,500.00

On photo, 2/8 CPH bank collection Initially, a very large sandstone for the “Open Air Museum” exhibition – Musée Pompon in 2016. Three bronzes were produced, one for the CPH bank, the second for a private individual, the third for the Château de Luynes in Touraine It is an emblematic piece of my work produced in very large format. The roundness of the...

Bronzes

Giraffe with jewels

€24,000.00

This young giraffe woman with a proud bearing has adorned herself with necklaces and bracelets to come to meet us, one might think. The rings encircling her neck represent for me the social pressure that she transcends with her elegance.Lady Georgiana Cavendish beautifully painted by Gainsborough said that men had left women only their toilets as a means...

Bronzes

Each his turn

€14,000.00

EACH HIS TURN could be a metaphor for the role of parents: helping their children take flight one after the other. And it’s not that simple, sometimes even quite acrobatic. This matriarch or patriarch joyfully helps her baby elephants to see further, higher !! I created a very rounded composition with a vanishing line, the baby elephant on the trunk which...

The octopus / my neighbour

From one octopus to another The octopus had always haunted her. Among the many animal documentaries to be found on the web there are some that describe this animal as one of the most intelligent of marine life. In the human imagination, it is a very disturbing animal. Moreover she had sketched and then sculpted her into a somewhat bigoted woman, as if...

The three Eves

A mother carries her two daughters on her back. It’s up to everyone to imagine what they contemplate together, peacefully, in a beautiful visionary impulse. A better future for their sisters? I like this sentence from Jean Giraudoux: “Adam firmly believes that he was chased out of the earthly paradise. Eve is not sure at all, and acts, in any case, as if...

On the beach of Berck

€59,000.00

Sculpture created for the exhibition Bêtes à Musée in 2017 It was also presented in 2021 in the remarkable garden of the Tool Museum. In the human imagination, the octopus is a very disturbing animal by its appearance and its intelligence. There the subject is reversed since the octopus has become the friend of a little girl. The 1/8 bronze statue is...

The favorite of both

A theme that I have often taken up, children and elephants pushing, pulling. The two little girls want to appropriate the same elephant who does not want to choose his playmate and is having fun with the situation. "Sophie Verger brings back images buried in our childhood memories and, beyond looking at what brings us so close to animals, invites us to...
