Antonin Mercié Gloria Victis, Important Bronze Group Sculpture
By Marius Jean Antonin Mercié
Located in Paris, FR
The bronze "Gloria Victis" is recognized by most to be Jean-Antonin Mercie's (1845-1916) best known sculpture. The work received great acclaim and won a medal of Honor when the plaster model was exhibited at the Paris Salon of 1874, and cast in bronze by Barbedienne shortly after.
The plaster model for 'Gloria Victis" was purchased by the City of Paris.
The same subject of greater size is at the entrance of the Petit Palais, in Paris.
Signed "A. MERCIÉ"; inscribed "GLORIA VICTIS", with the foundry mark "F. BARBEDIENNE, Fondeur. Paris", and stamped "mechanical reduction Achille Collas".
This bronze group is in perfect condition, but it has remained several decades outside and has thus acquired a natural green patina, and gilding is slightly worn.
Mercié was one of the most successful French sculptors of his generation, and as early as 1868 he was awarded the Prix de Rome, soon followed by accolades such as the cross of the Légion d'honneur, the Medal of Honor at the 1874 Salon (for his Gloria Victis sculpture...

"David Vainqueur" Bronze Sculpture by Antonin Mercié, Cast by Barbedienne
By F. Barbedienne Foundry, Marius Jean Antonin Mercié
Located in Shippensburg, PA
Also known as "David with the Head of Goliath", this very fine sculpture not only won a first class medal but also resulted in Mercie being honored with the Cross of the Legion of Honor, the only artist ever to receive this distinction while still a student at the French Academy in Rome. At just twenty-three, as a student both of Jouffroy and Falguiere at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, Mercie won the Prix de Rom in 1868 with his Thesee Vainqueur du Minotaure. He remained in Rome from 1869-1873, creating both of his most famous works: David Vainqueur...
