A mother helps her little son to take his first steps. The woman smiles in satisfaction, as any mother would, in spite of the effort involved in bending down and leading him on his way. And the little boy moves forward with determination, towards life. The piece is a depiction of the transmission of knowledge, of the learning process and, naturally, of motherly love. An innovation piece, with unfinished sculptural forms as if forming one piece with the stone base and providing a glimpse of the carving with the artist¿s tools. Adequate gift for a toddler's mother, around 12 months old.
