Artist Bio:
Auguste Louis Mathurin Moreau (1834-1917) was a French student of Mathurin Moreau and regularly exhibited in the Salons. The third son of sculptor and painter Jean Baptiste Moreau, Moreau initiated himself to sculpture along with his older brother Mathurin. In 1861, he made his debut at the Salon, where he would exhibit regularly until 1913. His subjects were primarily genre scenes, pastorals, and allegories; his style was realistic and graceful, revealing his relation to the other embers of the Moreau dynasty. The similitude of names sometimes provokes confusion in the attribution of certain works signed without first initials.
Lost Wax Casting Process
The "Lost Wax" is the most precise metal casting technique in existence, ensuring accurate reproductions of the original sculpture and exquisite detail. All bronze pieces are cast from a wax model regardless of the original material the model was sculpted in usually in clay or wax. "Lost wax" casting method was founded thousands of years ago. Even though, modern methods and materials have improved the technique. It is still an extremely labor intensive and expensive process.
Condition: This sculpture is in a very good condition and a great piece of art.
Bronze Dimensions: 26" H x 18" L x 9" D
