About the Item

A late 19th century bronze figure of a dog playing with a ball on a naturalistic base. Nice dark rich brown patina with slightly lighter rubbed area to lower side of base. Signed 'Waagen' on upper edge of base. Provenance: Private collection, Mayfair, London Arthur Waagen (1833-1898) was a German sculptor and animalier; a member of the 19th-century movement specializing in the realistic portrayal of animals. Celebrated in his time for his Orientalist cast bronze sculptures, the artist frequently depicted imagery associated with North African Muslim culture, sport hunting iconography, and historical or popular culture themes. He is best known for his depictions of dogs, often using related objects and other accompanying figures to create a context for his sculptures. One example is one of his most popular works, 'Kabyle au retour de la chasse' (1869), a sculpture featuring a Beber tribesman mounted on horseback and surrounded by hunting dogs, which the artist cast multiple times, one of which is now housed in the Dahesh Museum in New York. Born in 1833 in East Prussia, Waagen traveled to France to pursue his artistic career and set up a studio along the Parisian street Cours-de-Vincennes. Waagen exhibited regularly at the Parisian Salons from 1869 to 1887, and died in 1898.

He first studied sculpture under Pioche in Metz under whom he honed his technical skills. He then became a pupil of the painter Theodore Gericault in Paris where he pursued his career as a sculptor. Fratin first exhibited at the Paris Salon as early as 1831, where he showed ‘Fermer – An English Thoroughbred’. The popularity of Fratin’s sculpture in England had a significant impact on his career. His modelling style reflected his imaginative mind and sense of humour, particularly in his humorous modelling of bears. Fratin was asked to sculpt life-size monuments for French cities, including his home town of Metz. At the Great Exhibition of 1851 in London he was considered the greatest animalier sculptor of the day. Fratin’s bronzes...
