SMALL GOGOTTE Oval in shape. Mounted on a black-lacquered metal stem. Total height: 27.5 cm, width: 13 cm. Quaternary glacial periods, between 50,000 and 30,000 years ago. Note Gogottes are mineral formations originating from the sandy layer of Fontainebleau. Their mysterious shapes are the result of groundwater circulation that cemented the sand. Louis XIV was a great admirer of gogottes. André le Nôtre used them to decorate the edges of ponds and fountains at Versailles. They also inspired great artists such as Jean Arp, Henry Moore, and Louise Bourgeois.
