This versatile piece was designed as part of a set of nine lifesize copper nudes, depicting different moments in the story of Voltaire's 'Candide', reflecting the hero's obsession with the lady Cunégonde. His passionate desire for the sensual object of his attention makes it hard for him to focus on her as a complete person, and so he is teased with fleeting fantasies of her body in fractured form as his obsession moves around her body until he finally unites with her. In this case, it's 'All about the legs'.
