The Jardin de Tulleries has many statues by Maillot, including these two.
This guy was really smart. He made a bunch of statues of naked women and then later, folks introduced him to a woman who looked a lot like the statues. She became his model and he painted many many many naked pictures of her (there are rooms and rooms in the Musée de Maillot).
It's like Pygmalion.
Anyway, all his statues have this greenish tinge and they're all fairly sexy. I like his work.
