Quasimodo
Story of bronze
Quasimodo is the bell-ringer at Notre Dame: “Living there, sleeping there, hardly ever leaving it. The rough and wrinkled cathedral was his shell.” (Victor Hugo)
The statue evokes his sadness, his love and his distress. Quasimodo allows himself to waste away and die in a cellar, his arms wrapped around Esmeralda’s body. She is finally his for all eternity…
“Two heavy eyelids, in the middle of a head that is too large, teetering under a chest that is too small. When I traced the hair, I saw Quasimodo. And with my wooden spatula, I drew tears in the clay.”
