Paul-Édouard Delabrièrre, Bronze Group of Two Hounds, French Animalier, 19th C.
By Paul Edouard Delabriere
Located in New York, NY
Paul-Édouard Delabrièrre (French, 1829–1912), Bronze of Two Hounds, 19th Century
An impressive 19th-century French bronze sculpture depicting two hounds, finely modeled with exceptional naturalism and detail, signed E. Delabrièrre. The dogs are shown in dynamic contrast: one with its head raised in alert attention, the other sniffing the ground, perfectly capturing the instinctive behavior and vitality of hunting dogs. The sculpture rests on an integral bronze base with a rich green patina and traces of gilt highlights, enhancing its surface depth and visual interest.
Paul-Édouard Delabrièrre (1829–1912) was a prominent French animalier sculptor, part of the celebrated 19th-century movement that included Barye, Cain, and Fremiet. Initially trained as a painter, Delabrièrre turned to sculpture in 1848, debuting at the Paris Salon in 1857. He quickly gained recognition for his energetic and lifelike portrayals of animals, particularly hunting dogs, horses, lions, and exotic wildlife. His works are noted for their anatomical accuracy, spirited compositions, and ability to capture both strength and subtle expression. Today, Delabrièrre’s bronzes...
