About the Item

A family of lions having green patination depicting a male lion feeding two cubs; mounted on a naturalistic base - signed and applied entitled plaque "Lion 1st Gibier" Paul Edouard Delabrierre, Paris born, was a member of the school of Animalier painters, active in the late 19th Century. He studied with was born in Paris, France on March 29th 1829. He was an important member of the Animalier school in late 19th century Paris, and the last two years of his career, introduced cast iron as a legitimate material for sculpture. Delabrierre studied art under the painter Eugene Delestre but found his interest and skills were with making three-dimensional sculpture. He was greatly influenced by Antoine Louis Barye and "many of Delabrierre's 'combat models' show this violence of nature, which was very popular at that time. Many of the sculptures he executed often incorporated figures as well as animals." Delabrierre first exhibited at the Paris Salon of 1848 and continued until 1882. His first entry was Terrier, a wax model holding a Hare. The facade of the Louvre has one of his largest groups, L'Equitation, made in 1857. From Askart
