Biography:
Isidore Jules Bonheur (1827-1901) was a French painter and sculptor. Isidore first received an artistic apprenticeship from his father Raymond and his older sister Rosa, then, in 1827, he entered the School of Fine Arts in Paris. After practicing painting, Bonheur sent a plaster group to the Salon of 1848 an "African rider attacked by a lioness"; he was thus moving towards animal sculpture. His group "Combat of bulls" was noticed at the Salon of 1850.
Isidore Bonheur then composed mainly groups of small animals. He won medals in the Salons of 1865 and 1869, and a gold medal at the 1889 Universal Exhibition in Paris. He was decorated with the Legion of Honor in 1895.
The art founder François Auguste Hippolyte Peyrol (1856-1929), founded his bronzes for many years.

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...
