French Antique Bronze Sculpture of Lioness & Cubs by Charles Valton, circa 1910
About the Item
CHARLES VALTON
French, 1851-1913
Lioness and Two Cubs
Reddish-brown patinated bronze Signed "C. VALTON" to base over foundry cachet
Item # 301HOC20P
A good early cast circa 1910 of Charles Valton's Lioness and Two Cubs, it is a beautifully detailed sand-casting with a rich red-oxide and medium-brown surface patination that highlights the texture of the surface. The two cubs sit at total peace beneath their powerful mother, her head lowered in a low growl as she likely threatens a fellow lion away from the meal of rabbit she has brought for her cubs.

- French Antique Bronze Sculpture of "Harvester" by Mathurin MoreauBy Mathurin MoreauLocated in Shippensburg, PA"HARVESTER" AFTER A MODEL BY MATHURIN MOREAU (FRENCH, 1822-1912) In a reddish-brown and golden patinated bronze; signed in base "Math. Moreau" Item # 012SKP14W A fine model of a rural young farmer resting against a rocky outcrop to sharpen his scythe, the base of which has been set in the hay collected in a pile beside the rock; the naturalistic base is signed along the back in his typical nearly cursive script "Math. Moreau". It is a complex model and a fine accomplishment for the foundry, the joints seamlessly flowing into one another without any obvious connections.
