19th Century Animalier Bronze Sculpture "Standing Cockerel" by Paul Comolera
Located in London, GB
A very fine large late 19th Century Animalier gilt bronze study of a standing cockerel with his chest pushed out in a proud pose as he crows to the eraly morning sunshine, the bronze surface with excellent deep golden colour and fine hand finished detail, signed P.Comolera ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Height: 31 cm Width: 20 cm Condition: Excellent Original Condition Circa: 1900 Materials: Bronze SKU: 9324 ABOUT Paul Comolera (French, 1818 ~ 1897) Comolera was born in Paris, France. A very fine sculptor known mainly for his modelling of birds but he also produced some other animal figures as well as portrait busts. Comolera was a student of the early sculptor Francois Rude and he was the teacher of Jules Moigniez, one of the more important sculptors of the Animalier school. There is a distinct similarity in the detail, construction, form, and finish of the works of Comolera and his student Moigniez although Comolera’s birds are considered to be more in the naturalistic style as opposed to the romantic style of his pupil. Paul Comolera made his debut at the Salon in 1846 with a group called Golden Pheasants of China and continued to exhibit there until his death in 1897. Comolera’s bronzes...
