About the Item

A finely cast 19th century French patinated bronze sculpture depicting a standing dromedary camel, portrayed in a naturalistic stance with its head slightly turned and mouth open as if mid-call. The artist has captured the camel’s distinctive anatomy with exceptional detail, from the textured hump and sinewy neck to the folds of skin and defined musculature of the legs. Set upon an integral naturalistic base, the piece exhibits a rich, dark brown patina consistent with its age, highlighting the subtle modeling and depth of form. Likely created during the height of Orientalist influence in 19th century France, this sculpture reflects the period’s fascination with exotic animals and faraway lands, making it both a decorative object and a testament to the fine craftsmanship of French bronze work of the era. 9.5" x 9.5"
