Tree-Climbing Panther*

Splendid black patinated bronze sculpture of a lioness titled “Lionne Rugissante” by the French animalier Irénée Rochard (b. 1906). The powerful looking animal is crouching down on its front legs and roaring at something that…
Lean and Hungry Cheetah*
This big cat, which we think looks more like a cheetah than a panther, has a real look of speed about him. Lean and hungry looking and striding forward with his head slightly lowered, you…
Barye Panther and Kill*
Superb bronze sculpture of a recumbent panther lying over its kill by the celebrated French animalier Antoine-Louis Barye. A lifelike study with the panther at ease, one paw resting on the dead Muntjac deer lying…
Snarling Panther*
Powerful bronze study by Louis Carvin of a purposeful looking panther with his teeth bared, snarling while striding forward. Modelled strong and muscly rather than sleek and slinky, this animal is tense and just quickening…

Panther by Brault*
Looking at this fine animal you can see why panthers were such a favourite subject of the Art Deco animal sculptors. Sleek, speedy and with that edge of danger, they perfectly encompass the artistic style…
Spelter Panther by Carvin*
Sleek spelter panther by Louis-Albert Carvin. Great movement with the animal captured striding forward and keenly looking slightly to one side as if about to change direction. Finished in an antique green colour and set…

Pair of Spelter Panthers*
An unusual find, this one – a matching pair of spelter panthers each set on a light brown variegated marble base. Unsigned but the artist, whoever he was, has carefully stylised the animals imbuing them…
Alsatian by Carvin*
Realistic figure of an Alsatian by the French sculptor Louis Carvin. This fine looking dog is standing at the alert on what looks to be rocky terrain, with his ears pricked and sniffing the air.…

Leaping Panther*
Dark bronze coloured spelter panther leaping over green onyx rocks. Beautifully sleek lines so typical of the better examples of this subject. The two piece marble base is unusually shaped, coming to a point at…
Panther Pair*
An appealing pair of Art Deco cold-painted spelter panthers which, although unmarked, were almost certainly cast at the Le Verrier foundry in the late 1930’s. A peaceful scene as the animals who, it’s clear to…
Hold that Tiger*
Unusual and nicely finished cold painted spelter tiger on a very attractive marble base. The animal is stealthily moving forward as though having just picked up the scent of his next meal. There is no…
