关于这件雕塑
Barye was a prolific artist and famous for his 'animalier' sculptures. This bronze figure is the 'Elephant du Sénégal' [Senegalise Elephant] modelled shortly before 1865. This cast bears the stamp of Barbédienne whose foundry, established in 1838, employed three-hundred workmen and produced over one thousand bronzes each year. Large 'editions' of bronzes, made possible by the development of mechanical scale reduction techniques in the 1830s, supplied the growing market for bronzes to decorate bourgeois interiors. The compositions of Barye, whose models were taken over Barbédienne on the sculptor's death in 1875, were among the most popular.
