Historic description:<\/p>\n
In 1888, Denys-Pierre Puech modelled and exhibited his plaster version of Muse d’Andr\u00e9 Chenier (ENG. Andr\u00e9 Chenier’s Muse) in the Paris Salon (no. 4554). The state commissioned a marble version of the work, which was exhibited the following year (no. 4839) and subsequently installed in the Mus\u00e9e du Luxembourg.<\/p>\n
Andr\u00e9 Chenier was a well-known royalist poet guillotined in the final days of Robespierre’s reign of terror. It was during the 141 days he spent incarcerated in the St Lazare prison prior to his execution that Chenier met Anne Francoise-Aim\u00e9e de Franquetot de Coigny, the woman who became his muse, and whom Puech has depicted cradling the poet’s head with her hair in this sculpture.<\/p>\n
Puech was a studnt of Falguiere, Chapu and Dubois.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":10743,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"default","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[237],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-10742","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-barrocorenacimiento","7":"pa_tamano-25cm","8":"pa_tamano-30cm","9":"pa_tamano-35cm","10":"pa_tamano-40cm","11":"pa_tamano-45cm","12":"desktop-align-left","13":"tablet-align-left","14":"mobile-align-left","16":"first","17":"instock","18":"taxable","19":"shipping-taxable","20":"purchasable","21":"product-type-variable"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ancestralsculptures.com\/es_es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/10742","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ancestralsculptures.com\/es_es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ancestralsculptures.com\/es_es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ancestralsculptures.com\/es_es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10742"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.ancestralsculptures.com\/es_es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/10742\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10746,"href":"https:\/\/www.ancestralsculptures.com\/es_es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/10742\/revisions\/10746"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ancestralsculptures.com\/es_es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10743"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ancestralsculptures.com\/es_es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10742"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ancestralsculptures.com\/es_es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=10742"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ancestralsculptures.com\/es_es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=10742"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ancestralsculptures.com\/es_es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=10742"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
