A bronze sculpture depicting Orpheus., Inventory No. 3876, Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp

The bronze sculpture Orpheus, Inventory No. 3876, by Ossip Zadkine, is housed in the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp.

Zadkine's interpretation of Orpheus, the mythical musician and poet, likely reflects his modernist approach, combining dynamic forms with emotional intensity. The work embodies Zadkine's fascination with mythology, using abstract shapes to convey the lyrical and tragic nature of Orpheus' story.
