Louis Botinelly, born in Digne on January 2, 1883, is the son of a marble worker and stone cutter, originally from the canton of Ticino (Switzerland) and settled in this city at the time of Louis's birth. The family later moved to Marseille, on Rue Saint-Pierre, in a workshop inherited by Botinelly's father upon the death of his brother. Thanks to a scholarship from the city of Marseille, Louis Botinelly was able to stay in Italy in 1902, where he worked in the workshop of Jules Coutan. In 1905 he was first in the national school of fine arts in Paris. He settled in the capital in 1906, where he created a large number of his works. In 1911, he received a bronze medal for his Bear Trainer. The Bear Trainer, a bronze group (1911). The group used to be located in Place du Général de Gaulle.

The hairstyle is sophisticated and beautifully enhances the lovely smiling face.
This gymnast dancer is presented nude; she executes a supple, graceful, and almost erotic gestural performance with voluptuousness. The eye is drawn to the dazzling physique of the young woman; this raw and feminine beauty, combined with a strong sense of imbalance, plunges the observer into an aesthetic and logical inquiry: is such an imbalance possible?
One loses their bearings, feeling almost weightless... This work presents, in some respects, an evocation and an almost surrealist feeling....
