A Halt in the Forest in front of the Parliament Building

In front of the main entrance stands the sculptor’s most important work, A Halt in the Forest. It represents an Indian family: the noble father, the mother busy kindling a fire and the young girl, all looking towards the point where the adolescent son is aiming his arrow.

Sculpted by Louis-Philippe Hébert

The Nigog Fisherman is the other of the pair
