Édouard Branly, Bronze sculpture in Jardin du Luxembourg, France.
The bronze sculpture represents Édouard Branly, a French physicist, standing atop a concrete pedestal in the garden's northern section.
Charles Marie Louis Joseph Sarrabezolles created this commemorative sculpture in 1962 to honor the contributions of Branly to radio technology.
The statue stands as a testament to French scientific achievements, joining other sculptures of notable figures throughout the Luxembourg Gardens.
Visitors can access the sculpture through multiple garden entrances, with the nearest Metro stations being Luxembourg and Notre-Dame-des-Champs.
The sculptor employed his signature concrete carving technique for the pedestal, which he pioneered during his work on the Villemomble campanile.
