Museum acquisitions My favourite Merens €4,400.00 This sculpture was acquired by the Musée de l’Outil du Val d’Oise in Wit Dit Joli Village. In 2020, I exhibited around ten large sculptures in the museum's Remarkable Garden and this smallest piece found a place in one of its rooms. I was inspired by the Merens, a powerful Pyrenean animal contrasting with the fragility of the little girl. Merens,... View
Bronzes On the beach of Berck €59,000.00 Sculpture created for the exhibition Bêtes à Musée in 2017 It was also presented in 2021 in the remarkable garden of the Tool Museum. In the human imagination, the octopus is a very disturbing animal by its appearance and its intelligence. There the subject is reversed since the octopus has become the friend of a little girl. The 1/8 bronze statue is... Add to cart
Private acquisitions Winter voyage A horse in a boat, a blanket on its back. An old horse leaving on a journey, a very long journey that old horses take and from which they don’t return. And a young girl, an image of spring, who one last time rests her head on his muzzle and hides her tears in his mane. She will leave, this crossing is not for her, not yet. They both know this, the consent... View
Clays The visit €2,400.00 This sculpture is a revisitation of the universal bear/woman myth : At the back, a little girl hibernates with her bear companion. At the front, the girls observe a second bear, whom they are about to welcome as an equal guest. Everyone can make the rest of the story their own. The visit is a work of art with everal readings. During my trip to Tahiti, I... Add to cart
Bronzes Two Percherons and their little riders €7,800.00 I have always loved Uccello’s horses. An order from a collector led me to model these two Percherons with rounded and powerful shapes. I am obviously the opposite of the representation of war or tournament scenes: each of my “destriers” is ridden by a child, for a tender and joyful encounter. Add to cart
Bronzes Together €5,800.00 Last winter, a friend's little girl told her school friends that an elephant was living in her garage. It would soon accompany her to school when the weather cooperated, as elephants are very sensitive to the cold. I brought her story to life. It's a piece full of movement, with the child holding her companion's trunk to take it for a walk. Slate- gray... View
Bronzes Louise at the zoo, version 2 €5,800.00 This confrontation between the powerful animal from prehistoric times and the small, fragile but fearless human remains a favourite theme for me.It's an image that works in many people's imaginations. How can we understand this? Is it the fascination that the animal world holds for us, both close and mysterious in our 'civilised' eyes?Our ancestors,... View
Bronzes My favorite horse €3,900.00 The privileged relationship of the little girl and her horse, a theme that I have taken up many times, inspired by my own daughters. The glances they exchange are full of confidence. It is a very readable animal statue and imposes itself by a circle composition. “The language of sculpture is composed of words of love and poetry,” wrote Zadkine. This... View
Bronzes On the trunk €9,200.00 This large sculpture joins the “Elephant and little girl” series in which they exchange glances. It is a very readable piece and imposes itself by a circle composition. The slate gray patina enhances the texture of the animal's skin. View

Bronzes Rhinoceros and his rider €2,900.00 Little girls dream of riding unicorns, but, proof provided by this sculpture, rhinos too. Fragility and brute force united in the same contemplation. This very "drown" sculpture is magnified by a slate gray patina. View
Private acquisitions The favorite of both A theme that I have often taken up, children and elephants pushing, pulling. The two little girls want to appropriate the same elephant who does not want to choose his playmate and is having fun with the situation. "Sophie Verger brings back images buried in our childhood memories and, beyond looking at what brings us so close to animals, invites us to... View

Bronzes Dressage €16,000.00 Large, very graphic sculpture made at the Chapon art foundry. The little rider on the sidesaddle on the highest perched horse is confident. The eyes of the horses meet.
