1900 - 1920
Description

A fine quality 19th century (circa 1900) bronze figure of the ‘Goat Carver’ signed by Julien Auguste Philibert Lorieux (1876-1915).

This charming bronze figure depicts a young boy, the goat carver, seated on a rock with fur loin cloth to his waist holding a small carved goat in this left hand, signed to base 'J. Lorieux’ also with foundry mark.

Julien Auguste Philibert Lorieux was born in Paris in 1876 later studying under various sculptors and he was particularly known for producing genre figures and portrait busts.

He exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français winning a travelling scholarship in 1902 and a first class medal in 1907 and later died of wounds at Tout on the Western front in 1915.

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

19th-century French bronze sculpture is characterised by high technical precision in casting, depicting classical, mythological, or realistic genre subjects finished with rich surface patination.

These figures were typically cast in bronze alloy using the lost-wax (cire perdue) or sand casting method, followed by hand-chasing and chemical patination to achieve depth of colour.

Authentic pieces often display crisp detail from hand-finishing, foundry marks or artist signatures cast into the base, natural age wear to the patina, and appropriate weight consistent with bronze.

A sculptural bronze figure serves as a focal point on a mantelpiece, sideboard, or study bookshelf, contrasting well against both neutral backdrops and deep wall tones.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth or soft-bristled brush, and apply microcrystalline wax sparingly once a year to preserve the original patina without introducing moisture.
