Poetic description:
With "Charlot" , Thérèse Kalifa brings back to life the timeless icon of silent cinema. This universal character, with undeniable charm, stands there, frozen in bronze, but inhabited by a profound humanity. The slightly leaning posture, the mischievous look and the delicately held cane evoke both his legendary clumsiness and his resilience in the face of the absurdities of the world.
The patinated bronze, enhanced with touches of subtle paint – like the red flower on his jacket – gives the sculpture a touch of tenderness and authenticity. The folds of the costume and the bittersweet expression of Charlot reflect a meticulous attention to detail, making this work much more than a simple homage. It is a true silent story.
"Charlot" embodies the eternal vagabond, the optimist who, despite difficulties, always finds a way to smile. With him, art becomes a celebration of the small victories of everyday life, a reminder that even in simplicity, there is poetry.
Why choose this sculpture?
An emotional evocation of a universally adored character.
A perfect balance between nostalgia and modernity.
A piece full of soul, ideal for lovers of art and cinema.
Add "Charlot" to your collection and let this moving and elegant work illuminate your spaces with its timeless spirit.
