Sculpture representing "La Renommée" in brown patina bronze by Julien Causse. This draped, bare-shouldered young woman blows into a reed-shaped horn. She seems to be rising from a leafy rock. Her hair is tied in a loose bun. La Renommée is an allegory personifying public recognition. The figure is signed J. CAUSSE on the terrace. It rests on a red marble swivel base.
Julien Causse (1869-1909) was a French sculptor known for his delicate female figures. He studied with Alexandre Falguière. He won an honorable mention at the 1892 Salon des artistes français and at the 1900 Universal Exhibition.
