Georges Lucien Guyot "Babouin" Patinated Bronze Sculpture

About the Item

This "Babouin," or "Baboon," patinated bronze sculpture by Georges Lucien Guyot, executed by Susse Fondeur in Paris is a wonderful piece that brings the architectural wonder that every eye delights in from the Art Deco period and applies it to a beloved natural subject of the baboon. The blockiness of the composition, far from taking away from the animal's natural beauty, seems only to enhance the animal's innate sense of fortitude and strength. Artist: Georges Lucien Guyot Country: France Circa: Designed circa 1930, executed circa 1950 Dimensions: 16" height, 5.5" width, 14.75" depth Materials: Patinated bronze Signed: ''Guyot," and foundry impressed “BRONZE,” and with foundry mark "SUSSE F/PARIS/CIRE PERDUE'' Provenance: From a Distinguished Private collection, Washington, D.C. Literature: Sculpture pictured in Les animaliers à la Galerie Malsherbes, by Gaston Derys, Mobilier et Décoration, November 1934, p. 489.
