Discover Ex-Voto Stone by Trudon. This ex-voto was discovered during archaeological excavations in Syria in the 1850s and was most likely offered to a Syrian deity. The inscription engraved around its wrist, “Prokla en ex-voto,” translates as “For herself or her household, to dedicate.” The original piece is housed in the Louvre Museum. As part of its collaboration with the Réunion des Musées Nationaux – Grand Palais (the French National Museum Organisation), Trudon presents reproductions of this work in a range of coloured waxes. Each ex-voto is adorned with a wick, paying homage to the candle’s primary function, even though these wax sculptures are intended to be collected rather than consumed. Created in collaboration with the Plaster Cast Workshop of the Rmn – Grand Palais.
