Le Vampire," a sculpture by the French Art Nouveau sculptor Agathon Leonard (1841-1923) at Crissy Galleries, is a rare example of fin de siècle erotica. The sculpture will be on display until sold.
This decorative statuette derives its subject matter from the novel "Dracula" (1897), a wild tale of vampires and werewolves by the English writer Bram Stoker (1847-1912). "Le Vampire" is the personification of the undead, a sculptural confluence of realism and fantasy in art.
With creepy, sexy pic. Worth a peek.
