L'Été sans bras, Bronze sculpture in Perpignan, France.

This bronze sculpture depicts a female torso without arms, showcasing Maillol's simplified approach to human form with smooth, rounded surfaces and classical proportions.

Created by Aristide Maillol in 1911, this sculpture was cast in bronze by foundry Émile Godard as part of a limited edition of twelve numbered pieces.

The work represents Maillol's philosophy that arms distract from the body's profile, emphasizing the torso as the central element of human expression and vitality.

Located in central Perpignan with free public access, visitors can observe this 1.63-meter tall sculpture integrated harmoniously into the urban environment throughout the year.

This specific piece bears the number 1/4, making it one of only four copies designated for private collectors rather than museums in the original edition.
