Erte Romain De Tirtoff "The Hunting" Bronze Sculpture

This sculpture represents a creature - half woman, half animal wounded by a cruel hunter. She is crying, sitting on a bed of dead leaves, holding the naked branches of a tree in order not to fall. The Hunting is infused with the sadness that Erte associates with autumn. This has also been interpreted in another sculpture titled Autumn. (The letter P). Signed Erte on the base.
