Jean-Jacques Feuchère (1807–1853) Leda and the Swan Model created circa 1840–1850; 1852 or earlier Bronze with a golden patina Signed “Feuchère Scpt” Bears the inscription “Fbt” H. 18 cm, base W. 17 x D. 12.7 cm Born into a family of bronze casters, Jean-Jacques Feuchère trained in the family workshops before exhibiting regularly at the Salon from 1831 to 1852. In addition to major public commissions in a late Neoclassical style, he also created small statuettes intended for collectors. These statuettes, inspired by the Renaissance and mythology, reveal a freer and more romantic style.
