I’m not really sure about this sculpture, but it is similar to another one I found which is called “Family.” A series of white marble sculptures were completed for the city of Jeddah by a group of Belgian artists, and I believe this is one of those sculptures. Unfortunately specific information is not available about this series of sculptures.
UPDATE: The origins of this sculpture have been solved with the help of my blog! I was contacted by a relative of the artist who created this sculpture, and credit is now being attributed to physician and artist Francois Kovacs. To read more about this turn of events, click here.
About This Blog, and About Me: Susie of Arabia
Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, is KSA's 2nd largest city and is located on its west coast, right on the Red Sea. I moved here in 2007 with my Saudi hubby. This journal reflects the things that I see here, life through my eyes, my lens.
Please be sure to also visit my other blog, SUSIE OF ARABIA (formerly SUSIE'S BIG ADVENTURE), which relates my experiences, thoughts, and observations about living in Saudi Arabia.
