Alexander Calder, der für seine Offenheit und pragmatische Sensibilität bekannt ist, war im Leben genauso direkt, genial und direkt auf den Punkt wie in seiner Kunst. "Personnages" zum Beispiel ist unverschämt dynamisch, ein Werk, das an seine frühe Vorliebe für das Zirkusgeschehen sowie an seine Einsichten in die menschliche Natur erinnert. Der Charakter von "Personnages" suggeriert eine spontane Zeichnung im Raum und erinnert an seine radikalen Drahtskulpturen der 1920er Jahre.
