Little relaxer 1935

"Little Relaxer" is a 1935 sculpture by Yannoulis Chalepas, a Greek sculptor born in 1851. The sculpture, rendered in a simplified, modern style, depicts a reclining female figure, her body contorted in a relaxed pose. The smooth, white surface of the sculpture contrasts with the rough, textured base, highlighting the figure's delicate form. Chalepas's work often explored themes of the human form, capturing the beauty and vulnerability of the body. This piece showcases the artist's skill in manipulating form and texture to evoke a sense of calm and serenity.
