Art flourished in France to an exciting and unprecedented degree in
the 19th century. Sculpture was a part of this fantastic explosion
of creative genius with such artistic giants as Rodin, Barye,
d'Angers and Carpeaux. At the same time technological advances in
the bronze industry transformed sculpture from an art form for
public plazas and the rich to art for living rooms and vestibules
of even the middle class. The result has been an abundant supply of
nineteenth century French bronzes-some common reproductions, and
some extremely valuable limited editions. In this important
reference, you can discover a wealth of information. This
extraordinary volume contains a complete encyclopedia of almost 750
French artists, with biographies, listings of works (along with
size and foundry when known), museum pieces in France and
elsewhere, and recent sales. It also includes an overview of 19th
century bronze sculpture, the foundries that cast the bronzes, and
methods used to cast works. 1000 photographs capture the beauty of
the pieces and help identify these and similar works.
