About the Item
Large patinated bronze figure of Actaeon by Emile Laporte
French, late 19th century
Measures: height 84cm, width 42cm, depth 44cm
By the French artist Emile Laporte, and cast by the Siot-Decauville Foundry in Paris in the late nineteenth century, this very fine patinated bronze sculpture, large in size, depicts Actaeon, a well-known figure from Classical mythology, who suffered a famously tragic death at the hands of the goddess Artemis when he found her bathing in a woodland grove when out hunting.
He is shown as a semi-clad male figure holding a bow in one hand, with a quiver at his feet, standing on a naturalistic circular base. He stands facing upwards, full of curiosity, trepidation, and foreboding; the artist has chosen to depict him in the moments before he the goddess curses and transforms him into a deer to be devoured by his own hounds. The base is signed within the cast 'E.LAPORTE' and with Siot-Decauville Fondeur PARIS foundry mark.
