This is an exact casting from an original by Pierre-Jules Mene. Hunting groups by Mene (d. 1871) are consistently the best among the genre. The wax model for this popular work was exhibited at the Salon in 1869. The following year, the group was edited in bronze in three variations – without dogs, with three dogs and, as here, with five hounds.

  • Maintenance

    Bronze lasts forever and will never rust, warp or contort. It is an alloy (a mixture of metals) and will oxidize over the years. This process will not hurt the statue. In fact, it can enhance the beauty by turning the statue many wonderful shades of greens, blues, whites and yellows. For the client that wants to maintain the original patina/coloring of their newly acquired work of art, Art of Bronze has several secrets. Every statue and placement will have different requirements and it is best to discuss your needs with Art of Bronze.
