Alfred DUBUCAND: Sculptor born in Paris on November 25, 1828. Exhibited at the salon from 1867 to 1883. Animals around the theme of hunting captivate him and when he discovers the east, he is in turn fascinated by the Maghrebian fauna. That he sometimes stages with humans. His attention to detail and his ability to capture the movement in suspense, classify him in the category of great animal sculptors, such as Barye father and son, Pierre Jules Mène, or Emmanuel Frémier.
