Bronze Sculpture Of A Lion With A Snake In The Style Of Antoine Louis Barye 19th Century
Artist: D'après Antoine Louis Barye
Sculpture in bronze lion with snake in the taste of Antoine Louis Barye XIXe
An unsigned bronze proof, this 19th-century animal bronze with its antique-style patina is typical of the work of French Romantic master sculptor Antoine Louis Barye (1795-1875).
Sacrilege turned sacred, frozen in bronze, Barye's Romanticism is defined as a character, a multifaceted message. Where the classicist dared not introduce the artist's feelings into his subjects, Barye, with Romanticism, brings them to life.
The figure of the serpent (evil, vice) is a recurring figure in Barye's sculptures, crushed by the Lion, symbol of triumph over evil, the latter seems wounded by the reptile. This subject is emblematic of Barye's works, each facet of this sculpture offering a new point of view & artistic message, ideal for all collectors of 19th century romantic & animal bronze!
