Frederic Chevarin, Baleine Blanche, Carrara Marble, 178cm high, 114cm wide, 22cm thick
Baleine Blanche (“White Whale”) is a unique monumental sculpture by French sculptor Frederic Chevarin. Expertly carved from a single block of exquisite white Carrara marble. Standing 178 cm high, the work captures the elegant tail of a beluga whale as it rises from the water. The broad flukes gently tilted to one side in a graceful, dynamic gesture. The composition conveys both movement and tranquillity, transforming a moment from nature into a timeless sculptural form.
Renowned for its exceptional purity and luminous quality, Carrara marble enhances the smooth, flowing contours of the sculpture. Thus allowing light to play across its finely polished surface. Chevarin’s sensitive handling of the stone highlights the subtle curves and powerful anatomy of the whale’s tail, creating an impression of weightlessness despite the solidity of the material.
Inspired by the quiet beauty of marine life, Baleine Blanche celebrates the strength, elegance and serenity of one of the ocean’s most distinctive mammals. The sculpture reflects the artist’s fascination with the natural world and his ability to translate organic forms into enduring works of art. Both contemporary and timeless, this impressive one-of-a-kind piece would make a striking focal point in a private collection, sculpture garden, gallery or public space.
