"Crouching Flora" is a terracotta sculpture created by French sculptor Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux between 1858 and 1868. The sculpture depicts a nude female figure in a crouching pose, with her head turned slightly to the side. The work is notable for its naturalistic and expressive style, which was characteristic of Carpeaux's work. The sculpture's rough, unfinished surface adds to its sense of movement and energy. Currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, "Crouching Flora" exemplifies Carpeaux's talent for capturing the beauty and dynamism of the human form.
