Text Appearing Before Image:
Statuette d'enfant.

une très-belle copie en bronze, exécutée à Rome en 1540 par
Francelli et Sansovino. Le petit Faune, offert à Louis XVIII par
la municipalité de Vienne, qui rit de façon si narquoise et qui

—60—

dresse ses oreilles pointues de sylvain, doit être placé à côté
de tous ces enfants divins et humains, qui sont ce que l'art
grec nous a laissé de plus délicatement ingénieux et de plus
charmant.
En même temps, la sculpture devient dramatique et s'exerce à traduire les
sentiments de
lâme humaine
dans les tra-
gédies de la
légende et de
l'histoire, non
pas avec ce
faste et avec
cette p o m p e
dont le Lao-
coon nous of-
frira plus tard
l'exemple,
mais avec une
décence et une
mesure qui
appartiennent
seulement aux
grandes épo-
ques de l'art.
Il en est ainsi de la statue de Niohide qui est au Louvre sans tête et sans bras,
le corps infléchi. Elle a peut-être fait partie de l'ensemble,
aujourd'hui perdu, dont les copies sont à Florence, et que les
critiques anciens attribuaient à Praxitèle ou à Scopas.
