"Cra-Cra", a bronze bust sculpted by Charles Despiau in 1917, features a young woman with a striking gaze and a simple, elegant hairstyle. Despiau, known for his realistic, expressive portraits, captured a sense of both youthfulness and a hint of melancholy in this work. The simplified forms and subtle modeling of the features are characteristic of his style, often described as "classic" or "neoclassical".
