About the Item

A fine late 19th century antique French bronze sculpture group, of a pair of race horses & jockeys, by Paul Louis Emile Loiseau-Rousseau, Paris (1861-1927). The bronze circa 1895 depicts two racehorses with their jockeys in mid jump over a naturalistically cast hedge, on a similarly cast base, the bronze is raised on a black & white veined marble moulded base. The bronze sculpture truly captures the energy of the horses & riders in full flight, possibly in a Steeplechase, it is signed to the base "E. Loiseau". The bronze has a deep rich dark brown patination, condition is excellent, the bronze weighs 40lbs. This very fine bronze sculpture is ready to grace your space. Loiseau-Rousseau was a student of the sculptor Théophile Barrau and at the turn of the century, he exhibited at the Paris salons, where he won a third-class medal in 1892 and a second-class medal three years later in 1895. He was awarded the gold medal at the 1900 World Exhibition in Paris and was accepted as a Knight in the Legion of Honour in 1901.
