About the Item

Marble and gilt bronze Orientalist sculpture by Hautot French, Early 20th Century Figure: Height 60cm, width 20cm, depth 18cm Base: Height 12.5cm, width 30cm, depth 30cm Overall: Height 72.5cm, width 30cm, depth 30cm This early 20th-century sculpture by French artist Rachel Hautot (1882–1935), exemplifies her distinctive blend of European training and North African influence. Hautot trained under Laurent Marqueste at the École des Beaux-Arts, and moved to Tunisia in 1912, where she became renowned for her dynamic depictions of traditional dress and culture. The sculpture depicts a musician, mouth open in song, holding a hand drum. His face and limbs are cast in gilt bronze, while his drapery is carved from white marble. The figure stands on a textured stone base with a green onyx plinth. A photograph of this work was featured in a posthumous exhibition in Tunis, after which her sculptures were returned to Normandy. Today, fewer than seventy of Hautot’s works are known to exist, many housed at the Musée Thomas-Henry in Cherbourg. This sculpture offers a rare and significant addition to any collection, showcasing Hautot’s masterful combination of materials and her unique artistic vision.

An Orientalist Lifesize Figural Bronze Statue, Attributed to Louis Hottot
By Louis Hottot
Located in Brighton, West Sussex
An Orientalist Lifesize Figural Bronze Statue, Attributed to Louis Hottot (French, 1834-1906). Modelled as a lady in Ottoman dress standing beneath an Eastern style pagoda with minaret. Depicting as if answering a call and stepping forward in greeting. France, Circa 1890. This impressive figural group is a rare work in bronze attributed to the Orientalist sculptor Louis Hottot whose oeuvre is more readily associated with what was called ‘bronze imitation’, referring to sculpture in white-metal or, as it is known today, spelter. That this large statue is cast from superior and costly bronze is indicative of its rarity and importance. The Orientalist subject relates to paintings by Jean-Léon Gérôme (1824–1904), Ludwig Deutsch (1855–1935) Gustav Bauernfeind...
