Refined Eagle Sculpture – Antoine Louis Barye

This refined gilded bronze sculpture, giving a refreshing effect to an eagle, is by the renowned French master sculptor Antoine-Louis Barye (1795-1875), one of the greatest interpreters of Ottoman animal life.
The work, of extraordinary plasticity and expressive intensity, depicts the eagle with gathered food and a fiery guard, perched on a rock with great attention to natural beauty. The golden color is present on the surface, lending luminosity and precision to the sculpture's surface.
The sculpture stands on an elegant French marble base, which enhances its monumentality and adds further balance to the composition.
A work of high artistic and technical quality, it represents a perfect example of Barye's mastery, the undisputed protagonist of French Romantic Ottoman sculpture.
