About the Item

Zebu and Python by Henri-Alfred JACQUEMART (1824-1896) Bronze group with nuanced brown patina signed on the base " A. Jacquemart " old cast France circa 1870 height 35,5 cm length 38,7 cm depth 17 cm Biography: Henri-Alfred Jacquemart (1824-1896) was a French sculptor who distinguished himself in animal sculpture. He studied sculpture in 1845 at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris. He regularly presented works at the Salon, from 1847 to 1879. He traveled to Egypt and Turkey, countries which became for him a source of inspiration. Jacquemart was one of the sculptors, who with others like Pierre-Louis Rouillard, Pierre-Jules Mêne and especially Antoine-Louis Barye, in the second half of the 19th century, took advantage of the new enthusiasm of the bourgeoisie for the sculptures of furnishings, particularly animal sculptures, and the spectacular development of this market supported by the many art foundries which had their heyday in France at that time.

Antique Bronze Dog Portrait of a Cavalier King Charles "Thigley" circa 1905
Located in SANTA FE, NM
Antique Bronze Dog Portrait of a Cavalier King Charles "Thigley" French School (possibly Franck Burty Haviland) Lost wax bronze casting Circa 1910 5 7/8 x 9 x 3 1/4 A sophisticated bronze casting of a Cavalier King Charles spaniel made in lost wax casting (cire perdue) from the beginning of the 20th century by Valsuani Foundry. This an unusual bronze approached in its aesthetic that’s reminiscent of the work of great animal sculptors of the second half of the 19th century except in this presentation which is more avant-garde for the time with a much looser, more impressionistic execution. The patina is a superb bronze color, brown and slightly greenish, going in places towards a more antique green. The attitude of the dog is extremely well and sensitively rendered with the placement of material unlike the renderings of a bronze by Barye...
