Henri Alfred Jacquemart (1824 Paris - 1896 ibid.) after "Valet au chiens" or also titled "Huntsman and dogs". Original title Bronze, green patina. Artist's inscription; Posthumous, contemporary cast of the 21st century; Monumental, almost life-size, realistic group of a young, listening huntsman or dog handler with his two dogs. This group with its lively depiction of a dog is one of the best-known and most important works by the artist, who was primarily active as an animal sculptor. In 1866, Jaquemart exhibited the plaster model of "Valet au Chiens" at the Paris Salon, which was subsequently cast several times in bronze and iron in large versions. This includes a specimen in the park of the imperial villa in Bad Ischl, which was probably a gift from Queen Victoria to Empress Elisabeth and Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria, popularly titled "Halali" or "Der Loser". Alongside Pierre Jules Mène and Antoine-Louis Barye, Jacquemart was one of the most important French animal sculptors of the 19th century; trained at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, he exhibited regularly and successfully at the Salon from 1847 to 1879 and was awarded medals in 1857, 1863 and 1865. From 1858 onwards, Jacquemart received numerous commissions for free sculptures, some of which were monumental, working with renowned foundries. At the same time, he undertook extensive travels through the Orient, which led to commissions for monuments in Cairo and Alexandria and directed his interest towards more exotic motifs and Egyptian and oriental themes. H. 169 cm. After Alfred Jacquemart (1824 - 1896). Green patinated bronze. Posthumous contemporary cast, 21st C.
