About the Item
Decorate an office with this large, patinated white metal sculpture with clock titled "La Moisson" (the harvest). Crafted in France, the antique composition stands on a red marble base, and features a farmer holding his bull during the wheat harvest with a clock underneath. Both man and bovine figures are standing on rocky ground further decorated with a sickle and wheat bundles. The work of art is signed on the side by the sculptor, E. Picault. The tall and elegant spelter sculpture is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, and adorns a rich patinated bronze finish. It would make a nice addition to a bookshelf in a study, or to a ranch house.
Emile Louis Picault (1833-1915) was a French sculptor, best known for works depicting allegorical and patriotic subjects, mythological heroes, and some animals sculptures. Picault was a very prolific artist, producing many sculptures during his long sculpting career. He began to show his artwork at the Salon beginning in 1863. He signed the majority of his work as "E. Picault".

French, Antique Bronze Sculpture of Aberdeen Angus Bull by Isidore Bonheur
By Isidore Jules Bonheur
Located in Shippensburg, PA
ISIDORE JULES BONHEUR
French, 1827-1901
Taureau Aberdeen-Angus" (Standing Aberdeen-Angus Bull)
Patinated sand-cast bronze Signed to base "I. BONHEUR"
Item # 211HDB17Z
An exquisite and very rare casting of an Aberdeen-Angus bull, an unusual and distinctive breed of cattle from Scotland, this sculpture by Isidore Jules Bonheur is almost without a doubt cast by the foundry of his brother-in-law Hippolyte Peyrol and a rather early model as well in light of the distinctive construction method. In her text on the selection of 46 animal bronzes in the collection of the Georgia Museum of Art, Eleanor Luciano notes regarding this model that "Bonheur is never recorded to have been to Scotland, where he would have seen this unusual breed. Rosa Bonheur painted in Scotland, and its seems likely that Isidore would have drawn the idea for this bull either from one of her sketches or from an agricultural show in France. The animal's rich mane and strong modeling make this one of the most successful." Notable is the very fine surface patination which exhibits a glassy finish with a complex range of colors presenting in the body of the bull, overall being medium brown but augmented with an underlying reddish hue against auburn highlights. The base is signed "I. BONHEUR" in the typical manner.
