{"product_id":"rupert-carabin-grenouille-frog-sculpture","title":"Rupert Carabin  “Grenouille” (Frog) Sculpture","description":"This French Art Nouveau wooden sculpture, “Grenouille” (Frog), by Rupert Carabin, depicts a maiden with webbed feet entranced by a figure emerging from the pond. The sculpture was exhibited at the 1907 “Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts” salon to much acclaim for its thematic boldness and sensitive modeling. At the turn of the century, Europe’s artistic establishment coupled the thematic possibilities of sensuality in Greek myth with a renewed taste for meticulous naturalism. For the ancients, the pond was the setting for many a tale of ruinous desire. Whether the character’s love was of himself, as in Echo and Narcissus, or love of the same sex, as in Hyla and Hercules, the pond became a place for reflection on the psyche.
