Rail 1921

"Rail" is a bronze sculpture by François Pompon, created in 1921. The sculpture, which is housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a bird in a simplified, almost geometric form. The smooth, rounded surfaces of the sculpture and the absence of unnecessary detail are characteristic of Pompon's style, which is often described as Art Deco. The sculpture's understated elegance and the artist's focus on capturing the essence of the subject, rather than its minute details, are key features of "Rail."
