Carpeaux appropriated the subject of the art piece 'La Danse (the dance)', it was used as a large high-relief for the opera of Paris opened in 1869. This charming statuette of is representative of the productions of the workshop Carpeaux , told the brother and the artist's father to take multiple copies the sale and whose income is living the fault. Carpeaux editions contribute to the dissemination of the work of the master , and well after his early death. The three nude woman, symbols of beauty, arts and fertility, stand together in a line in a composition to signify their alliance.
