Vignette-Rhythm In Art

He loved a lady,twice his age
In his heart a passion raged
He added her nam to his-
A young talent sadly cut short
Dying in WW1,as he so bravely fought

Tribute to Henri Gaudier-Brzeska (1891-1915) & his platonic love affair with Sophie Brzeska

Wow. Absolutely amazing sculptures and such an incredibly fascinating story. A beautiful tribute to him Brian. How sad he died so young, and what a shame his work is not more well known. Thank you once again for sharing. Love, Shar
