bronze sculpture depicting a seated child feeding a bird, after Pigalle . The original, " The Girl with the Bird and the Shell, Jean-Baptiste Pigalle 's "The Child with the Cage ." The naked child sits on the grass, and a seashell rests to their right. A gentle expression emanates from the child's gaze. Their innocent face radiates the joy of feeding the bird. Its companion piece, "The Child with the Cage," depicts a naked girl holding an open cage. The bird has flown away. The child, with a sad expression, gazes at the sky. An image of childhood naiveté, of first sorrows, far removed from life's hardships.
