Sculptor - Pierre Jules Mene
Title - Setter and Pointer mini
Sand Cast Bronze Atelier Pierre Jules Mene Circa 1855 2 3/8" height by 5 1/4" length (6 cm by 13.4 cm)
Mene often adapted his larger works into small miniature versions. Here is a miniature of his Chasse a la Perdrix with a Setter and a Pointer on point. The bronze is finely detailed with a dark brown black patina. It was cast by Mene in his own foundry and shows fine detail. A rare model not often found, as many of these miniature were broken and discarded over the years.
