"Captivité" (Imprisoned). Signed Gudmar. Dark patinated bronze Numbered 3/10 Foundry stamp Coubertin. H: 53.5 cm (including stone plinth 57 cm), L: 43 W: 25 Conceived in 1968. Blackpatinated Bronze Signed Gudmar H: 57 cm Captive, captive…I want to cut my fetters. I go through life with painfully angry lips. My abysses, why do I enquire into you, you deserve no name. Bronze joins itself to bronze and becomes a human being, and the human being has iron in its heart. But does the bronze really have this frightening gleam on its brow from the god of the lightnings? I throw my heart on the roadway, let the vultures devour it – the full moon will bear me a new one. Edith Södergran Captivité – Captivity This work was inspired by the Finnish poet Edith Södergran’s poem. Mint condition
