Le Rêve du Poète, Marble sculpture in Jardin de la Nouvelle-France, Paris, France.
Le Rêve du Poète features a central composition with figures surrounded by ancient ruins, carved entirely from a single monumental block of marble.
Sculptor Alphonse Emmanuel de Moncel de Perrin created this work in 1910 after presenting it at the French Artists Salons in 1905 and 1907.
The monument honors Alfred de Musset, notable French poet of the 19th century, incorporating symbolic elements such as an owl perched on a ledge.
The monument stands at the intersection of Avenue Franklin Roosevelt and Cours la Reine, accessible from Champs-Élysées-Clemenceau metro stations.
The sculpture incorporates a group depicting love with two embracing figures, reflecting the romantic themes found in Musset's literary works.
