French Sculpture "Parakeet on Tree" after Model by Antoine-Louis Barye
About the Item
MODEL OF "PERRUCHE POSSÉE SUR UN ARBRE" AFTER ANTOINE-LOUIS BARYE
Patinated zinc, signed BARYE twice in base; ca. early 20th century
Item # 103VPK20A
Barye's model of Perruche posée sur un arbre, la tête tournée vers la droite was cast as a pendant to the same model with its head turned to the left; these were originally executed in his atelier circa 1845 through 1857 primarily to surmount his Candelabres à douze lumières. After his death in 1875, the models were acquired by Brame and cast in their foundry.
The present casting was executed posthumously, probably early 20th century; it was cast in zinc and appears to have been plated with copper to allow for a chemical patination, this highlighted hints of red-oxide and ochre yellows in the rubbed relief. The base is signed BARYE slightly away from the placement intended by the mold, while the original mold cast signature is faintly visible in the proper placement at the base of the trunk.
Measurements: 6 1/2" H x 4 1/8" W (base) x 6 1/2" W (wing to wing) x 3 1/8" D (base)
Condition Report:
Light surface wear to original patina with undertones revealed in areas of relief; professionally cleaned, waxed and polished; in fine presentation-ready condition.

- Rare French Antique Bronze Sculpture “Lion Assis no.2” after Antoine-Louis BaryeBy Antoine-Louis BaryeLocated in Shippensburg, PAANTOINE-LOUIS BARYE French, 1796-1875 "Lion Assis no. 2" Patinated bronze Signed in cast "BARYE" Item # 109YHP24E Initially modeled by Barye in 1846 as a commission by Louis-Phillipe for the Tuilleries Gardens at a cost of 10,000 francs, the life-size sculpture sat near to Barye's Lion au Serpent until it was later moved in 1867 to the grand entrance to Pavilion de Flore and a pair was crafted for it using a mechanical technique, a gesture which incensed Barye, as he preferred to sculpt a mate to oppose Lion Assis but the government refused on the basis of the high cost. There are similarities between Lion Assis and Barye's Lion of the July Column, both beasts with notable similarity in the multiple layers of their manes and the quiet repose and powerful presence of the motionless Lion Assis is a natural development over his violent clashing group of Lion au Serpent from thirteen years prior. Version no. 1 was first offered in Barye's 1847 catalogue as no. 99 and due to the popularity of the sculpture it was cast in four different editions with varying dimensions. Lion Assis no. 2 was originally set over two base types: the more rare naturalistic base seen in the present model and the more common molded base (which incidentally also gives that variation some additional height). It was cast posthumously by Auguste Delafontaine, Hector Brame, Colin, Barbedienne and Graech-Marly. The same model and the original plaster and wax are held in the permanent collection of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts (acc. no. 2007.70 & 71). The present model is an early posthumous cast with a richly textured surface and exquisite detail finished in an overall dark brown patina with hints of reddish undertones; the surface is silky and translucent.
