This larger than life sculpture of a girl weeping was scanned in Montparnasse cemetery, Paris. Cimetière de Montparnasse was established in 1824. It is surrounded with memorials, historical relics, and works of art that makes the cemetery fascinating. Among some of the famous works of art at the cemetery, is this weeping girl; it depicts the figure of a young girl weeping with her hair and hands covering her face. The sculpture, like a lot of historical monuments and sculptures was made from stones. The maker of the sculpture is currently unknown but it is believed that it was made in the 19th Century.
