Le Centaure



Le Centaure


This large bronze sculpture represents the mythical centaur 
with the body of a horse and the bust of a man.


It was created in 1985 by the French artist César Baldaccini 
(called simply César) and sits in the small place Michel Debré 
at the intersection of Rue du Cherche-Midi and Rue de Sèvres.  


Interestingly, the artist placed his face 
as the head of this strange sculpture
