Important Bronze

Large bronze sculpture with brown patina with bronze reflections, signed on the embankment: L. Riché. A renowned animal sculptor, Louis Riché (1877-1949) left his mark on his time with the precision of his work and his passion for felines. This talented artist creates a captivating work here. Two lionesses stand close together, their powerful bodies at rest. Lying down, one of the lionesses rubs her head, showing her affection. The second, seated, seems to roar. Ears lowered, she wrinkles her features and reveals her carnivorous teeth. Carefully detailed, this scene that we imagine located in the African savannah, testifies to the love of the artist for these charismatic animals. This unique work will delight lovers of animal art. ******** Period: Early 20th century Excellent condition Shipping possible by Colissimo with careful packaging and appropriate protection.
