Artist: Adrien Etienne Gaudez (1845-1902)

Sculpture depicting Actaeon.
In Greek mythology, Actaeon,
Apollo’s grandson, was a hunter
who was transformed into a stag by Artemis,
after he spied her
bathing completely naked.
He is devoured by his own dogs
who do not recognize him.
He holds his spear in one hand and his horn in the other.
Bronze with a brown medal patina.
By Adrien Etienne GAUDEZ.
Titled in a cartouche with the notation
"hors concours" and signed on the base
Reproduced on page 347 of Pierre Kjellberg’s dictionary of
bronzes.
