French school of the 19th century, after François Rude (1784-1855) The Old Gallic Warrior Warrior after the group of the Departure of the Volunteers in 1792 or La Marseillaise, high relief adorning the Arc de Triomphe, Paris. Model created in 1835 Bust in plaster Signed "F. RUDE" on the left shoulder H. 40 cm Small chips Within the large body of work created by François Rude, The Departure of the Volunteers of 1792, which adorns the Arc de Triomphe de l'Etoile, holds a major place. The revolutionary event is celebrated by a representation with an antique look in which the Marseillaise or the Victory, under the features of a female allegory, overhangs a group of warriors, among which is our Gallic. Imbued with strong emotion and vivacity, this central figure of the composition unveiled in 1836, embodies a timeless warrior force.
