Vilac Pompon Bear Rocker

Pompon Bear Wood Rocker BY Vilac. For ages 18 months +. Some assembly required. With his small portable workbench, the sculptor Franois Pompon (1855-1933) liked to walk in the Jardin des Plantes in Paris. There he was able to watch the animals, and mold small sketches. Back in his studio, he sculpted bears, panthers, but also dogs, chickens and rabbits, simplifying the shapes to find the nature of each animal. Thus, under the visitors eyes of the Orsay Museum, where a large number of these sculptures are kept, the animals come to life! His sculptures have been re-interpreted by the artist Gerard Lo Monaco, and in cooperation with the RMN and the Muse dOrsay, Vilac pays homage to this brilliant artist by making this magnificent range of wooden toys.
