Romanian sculptor.
Brâncuşi grew up in the village of Hobiţa Romania, Gorj, near Târgu Jiu, near Romania's Carpathian Mountains, an area known for its rich tradition of folk crafts, particularly woodcarving. Geometric patterns of the region are seen in his later works.
He settled in Paris in 1904.
The sculptures of Constantin Brancusi blend simplicity and sophistication in a unique way.

"The Embrasss" is depicted, but the true inspiration for that Haiku is likely "The Endless Column."
