стефан абель зиндинг (1846 - 1922)
Stephan Abel Sinding is a Norwegian and Danish sculptor.
Stephan comes from a creative family, his brothers being composer Christian Sinding and painter Otto Sinding. He entered the Royal College of Drawing and studied art with Albert Wolf in Berlin. In France in 1874 he was impressed by the works of Auguste Rodin and Paul Dubois, and as a result Stephan Sinding abandoned the popular neoclassical movement of the time and moved towards a style inspired by Michelangelo, with flowing lines, raising themes of Scandinavian mythology as well as reality and eroticism.
Sinding created many realistic but also deeply symbolic sculptures, one of which, Mother in Captivity, won him the Grand Prix at the World's Fair in 1889.
In 1883 Stephan Sinding moved to Copenhagen, later becoming a Danish citizen and professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen. In 1910 he settled in Paris, where he lived and worked until his death in 1922. He became one of Norway's most famous sculptors, along with Gustav Vigeland.
