Sculptor Salvador Debón

Sculpture of two swans with long porcelain necks and white feathers about to take flight.

White feathers, a long stylised neck and an impressive poise have made swans frequent sources of inspiration for Lladro's artists. Back in 1992, the expressive possibilities offered by these splendid creatures allowed the creation of the Flight of Swans. The vibrant composition of the piece manages to convey all the power and grace of the moment in which a pair of swans take flight. The realism of this piece captures the slender silhouette of these birds that have inspired art and mythology since ancient times in an evocative image of beauty.
