Beschreibung
The myth of Pandora was described by the Greek poet Hesiod, among other authors. Created from clay by Hephaestus, Pandora was richly endowed with beauty and many talents by all the gods. Zeus presented her with a box, which she was instructed not to open. She did, however, and from it escaped all evil, and mankind was befallen by vice, disease and death.

Clovis Delacour was born in Châtillon-sur-Seine in 1859. He studied in Paris under Augustin-Jean Moreau-Vauthier (1831 - 1893), perhaps the most famous French sculptor in ivory in the late 19th century. In 1892 Delacour became a member of the Société des Artistes Français, received an award at the Exposition Universelle in 1900 and subsequently exhibited at the Royal Academy in London.
