ALFRED DUBUCAND, FRENCH (1828-1894)
Dubucand studied under the famous Animalier sculptor Barye and produced many
highly realistic models of animals throughout his career. He made his debut
at the Salon of 1867 with a wax model of a dead pheasant and exhibited
regularly until 1883, often showing wax models before re-submitting the
bronze casts in subsequent years. His attention to detail and skilful
modelling of animals reflected Barye's influence, but he is also renowned
for his work depicting the people and animals of North Africa and the Middle
East.
