Bacchante couchée - Petit Palais, Paris
Woman Stung by a Snake is an 1847 marble statue by French sculptor Auguste Clésinger (1814-1883).
Lieu de capture - Petit Palais, Paris
This marble, commissioned by the industrialist Alfred Mosselman, was the subject of a double artistic and social scandal at the Salon de peinture et de sculpture in 1847, where it was, along with Thomas Couture's Romans of Decadence, the most commented work of the Salon. The evocative image of a writhing under the bite of a symbolic snake wrapped around her wrist shocked contemporaries.
