Pair of French 19th Century Egyptian Revival Bust of Ramses & Isis by Hébert

About
A very handsome pair of French 19th century Egyptian Revival style busts of Ramses the II and his wife Isis, signed by Pierre-Eugène-Émile Hébert. Each is raised on a black Belgian marble base with ormolu trim and etched eagle design on the front, accented with ormolu details. Rouge Griotte marble borders the top and bottom of central column which has a similar design gilt-etched below the names Isis and Ramses. Above are the impeccably carved patinated bronze busts of the Pharaoh and his wife with wonderful expressions accented with finely chased ormolu head dress, wide necklaces and scepters. Pictured on columns #10566 offered separately.
Pierre-Eugène-Émile Hébert (1823 - 1893) was a renowned French sculptor. Son of sculptor Pierre Hébert, he studied both with his father and with Jean-Jacques Feuchère (1807–1852). Émile Hébert participated in the Salon de Paris and the Exposition Universelle in 1855. His "La Comédie and Le Drame" was created for the vaudeville theater in Paris, and was awarded a Class Medal in 1872. Émile Hébert was one of the few sculptors to work with the renowned bronzier Georges Servant, and their artistic collaboration resulted in pieces of the Neo-Grecian and Egyptian Revival style.
