Description
In my recent posts, I have shown you little santons and a Nativity made of bigger (and therefore more detailed) ones, and I gave you an explanation about this kind of traditional painted statues. This is another stunning scene which emphazises the unique talent of these Southern France artists, both in sculpture and in tridimensional painting. I will show you one or two other nice santons scenes soon. Best viewed full size. All comments welcome. I dedicate this photo to Aleksander Ledwolorz, an artist with a breathtaking talent in photo-manipulation, and I invite each of you, 2D and 3D artists, to visit his gallery. This is the link to my previous santons images:

Une image qui me plait beaucoup et m'émeut puisqu'une partie de nos amours est maintenant dans cette belle terre provençale! Des conditions difficiles, mais une très belle réussite et un bien joli cadeau pour un grand artiste de RR. 5++++

Tu me fend's le coeuuuur! Bel exemple de gros plan, mais tu aurais pu, d'un coup de brush, enlever les prix, non? A propos de Gaza, merci de tes commentaires (comme pour le reste de ma production). Le cynisme géopolitique me dégoûte de plus en plus. Je ne vois pas vraiment de différence entre le comportement de l'homme voici deux mille, mille, trois cents ans et maintenant. Le Hamas n'est qu'un ramassis de barbus sectaires voulant asseoir sa tyrannie rétrograde; Israël, sorte de petit bout d'Occident perdu dans la mer orientale, a oublié la définition du mot ghetto. Et nous on s'empiffre... et je le fais aussi!

This is really very interesting! DO keep up the good work! DPH PS: If any of my past comments have angered or irritated you, please accept my sincere apology! I DO hold you and your artwork in the highest regard! David P. Hoadley

Elles sont formidables! Beaucoup de charactere et details. J'aime bien. C'a me fais penser a un artiste francophone du nord de l'Ontario au Canada que je connaissais, qui faisait des trucs semblables, en argile ou la glaise. Il est decede depuis 2000.

Oops! Looks like I missed an ebot. I apologize about the lateness of my comment. I've been receiving my gmail through POP3 and I've noticed lately that not all the mail comes through. Excellent photo Edouard and I'll check out Ledwolorz's gallery.

Trés belle photo, réussie et éclatante. Les statuettes en sont un sujet magnifique. Une bonne idée.

I agree he has an amazing talent. Great dedication and better yet great photo!

Tiens, c'est bizarre, je crois que les e-bots n'ont pas marché ici parce que j'ai complètement raté cette image. C'est tout un art, ces figurines. C'est tiré tout droit de Marcel Pagnol, cette scène!

Bravo! This is a very beautiful image. Remarkable job. This picture very much has liked to me. Five stars!
