Femme accroupie, dite La muse tragique, élément du «Monument Victor Hugo»
This avant-garde sculpture, which breaks with the tradition of classical plasticity and heralds expressionist tendencies, was originally conceived as an independent work. Rodin then incorporated it into the monument to Victor Hugo and titled it La Muse tragique (The Tragic Muse).
