Crafted by renowned French sculptor and painter Albert-Ernest Carrier, this exquisite statuette titled 'Fisherwoman with trophies' evokes the romance and passion of traditional French art. The piece belongs to a dynamic pair composition, complimented by another statue equally iconic - 'Huntress with trophies'. Both represent the eternal passions of men, making them perfect for collectors who appreciate depth and storytelling in their pieces.

Born in 1824, Carrier went on to become an influential figure in the art world, his fame only surpassed by his assistant, Auguste Rodin. Carrier's mastery is evident in the lifelike details of the statuette, where a charming girl is entwined in a fishing net. The piece signifies victory and joy, depicted through the fishing gear in her hand and a rich catch in the other.

Married with David de Angers' teachings and influences from the School of Fine Arts, Carrier's sculptures are a collection of elegance, passion, and narratives. The 'Fisherwoman with trophies' is a testament to such a blend, making it as an excellent gift for art enthusiasts, fishermen, or anyone who cherishes French art.
