The note informs about the planned setting up in 1928, in the park next to the Trocadéro square in Paris, of Edward Wittig's sculpture 'Eve' from 1911. This sculpture was purchased by the French government in 1928. The information was published in the journal "Sztuki Piękne",1927/1928, no. 6, p. 240 (public domain, reprinted after the Library of the University of Silesia, Katowice).

"Eve", sculpture by Edward Wittig, in Paris.

One of Wittig's finest works, 'Eve', depicting a woman in a moment of sleep with her hand placed under her head, executed in a huge block of marble, was acquired before the war by the French government. Now, as we learn, the French government has ceded it to the city of Paris, which has decided to place it in the park in front of Place Trocadéro, one of the most beautiful places in the world, with a magnificent view of the Eiffel Tower and the Champs de Mars.

This is the first Polish sculpture to be placed in a public place in Paris. It will bear proud testimony to contemporary Polish art.
