“A figure appears suddenly and passes through the cooled prismatic lava stone like a breath of air leaving its fleeting imprint behind.”

‘Le Chercheur d’Or’ (The Gold Seeker) is a contemporary low-relief created by Fabrice Fanjoux. This modern artwork is part of a diptych of two pieces along with ‘L’Âge de Pierre’ (The Age of Stone). The chosen theme by the artist revolves around the mineral world, echoing the cave of the Fontaines Pétrifiantes de Saint-Nectaire and the volcanic water with which the artisan works to create limestone low-reliefs. A man is depicted in profile among the basaltic organs, where he sculpts. The artist’s signature is visible at the bottom left.
