Important polychrome terracotta statue representing ALBA.

ABLA AND ANTAR, THE ARAB LEGEND OF IMPOSSIBLE LOVE.
In the desert of Saudi Arabia, one of the most famous legends of Arabian literature: the story of Abla and Antar.
This epic, which spans the centuries, is not just a love story à la Romeo and Juliet, it's a symbol of the struggle against prejudice. Far from idealized tales of love, the story of Antar and Abla is a struggle against social norms and inequalities, set in the dunes of the Al Qassim desert.

At the base of the pedestal is a cartouche in Arabic.
Late 19th century French work, attributed to Friedrich GOLDSCHEIDER.
HEIGHT : 98 cm
Base dimensions: 28 cm long x 38 cm deep
