"Female Figure Playing the Bass Viol" is a bronze relief by French sculptor Alexandre-Louis-Marie Charpentier, created between 1802 and 1902. The artwork, currently held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, depicts a nude female figure in a dynamic pose, playing a bass-viol. Charpentier's work is known for its realistic depiction of the human form and its emphasis on classical themes. The relief exemplifies the artist's skill in capturing movement and anatomical detail, making it a fascinating example of late 19th-century French sculpture.
