Musée des Arts décoratifs, inv.27961: “Ce buste en terre cuite polychrome appartient sans doute à un projet de décor inachevé. Le visage hiératique de La Mort est rehaussé de touches verdâtres sur les paupières et les lèvres, évoquant le bleuissement d’une noyée et accentuant l’étrangeté de l’œuvre. Cette iconographie unique dans son œuvre montre une nouvelle fois l’influence du courant symboliste dont la mort est une thématique centrale”
