Arab Stallion (Ibrahim) 1843 Pierre Jules Mene (see last picture), inscribed on front of base PJ Mene. Great Used Condition, please see pictures. This is not marked Ibrahim, but looks exactly like him!
A fine posthumous casting of IBRAHIM-Cheval Arabe Ramene D\'Egypte no. 2 after the model by Pierre Jules Mene dipicting the Arabian Stallion winner of the French Derby. Originally modeled in 1843 and exhibited at Salon the Same year, this study of Irahim was Mene\'s first major equestrian subject and proved to be his most successful. In light of the immediate demand for the model, both in France and the English market, IBRAHIM was offered in 3 sizes from Mene\'s atelier in his 1846 catalogue as Etalon Arabe(dit Ibrahim) no. 1, 2, 3. These were cast by Mene through his death and his son-in-law Auguste Cain through 1908(Information from one sold from Silla Antiques and Art listing). See attached SOLD picture-this information is just for reference! See other information pictures from other listings.
This statue is 11 inches tall by 9 inches long by 4 inches deep. Pedestal is 3 1/2 inches tall by itself, weighs in at 6 pounds 5 ounces, I cannot figure out what the pedestal is made out of, wood, faux marble etc. ? All I can tell you is that it is Magnificent and will be a priced addition to your collection or decor.
