These influences can be seen, for example, in the sculpture of the dancer. Chiparus died in Paris in 1947. He is considered one of the most famous sculptors and ceramists of Art Deco. In addition to numerous human sculptures, he also made some animal sculptures such as the famous sculpture "Polar Bear and Buffalo", which he exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1942.
