Pierre-Albert Laplanche
Antique 19th cent. Dog Portrait Jack Russell Terrier by Pierre-Albert Laplanche

Mid 1800's

About the Item

Antique Bronze Dog Portrait of a Terrier Pierre-Albert Laplanche (French, 1826-1873) Signed in script to base "Laplanche" Stamped "E.V 3753" 8 x 2.75 x 8 1/4 inches This is a superb and sensitive depiction of an attentive dog standing with its ears pricked, head turned and eyes deeply focused on the viewer. The patina is a light- brown finish and the details are crisp and very fine. The dog displays an exceptionally kind face and looks good from all angles. It’s a very sweet and compelling portrayal of a “family dog.” Pierre-Albert Laplanche was born in 1826 in Lyons and was a student of Pierre-Louis Rouillard. Additionally, Laplanche exhibited at the Paris Salons and numerous examples of his sculptures can be found in the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Reims, France. Please see “Animals in Bronze” by Christopher Payne, Antique Collectors Club, 1986, p. 201 for a comparable example.

  • Antique 19th century Bronze Dog Portrait of a Maltese on a Marble Base
    Located in SANTA FE, NM
    Antique Bronze Dog Portrait of a Maltese on a Marble Base French 19th century 1/2 x 8 x 5 1/2 inches The chiseled bronze has a nuanced, rich brown patina depicting a Maltese in the round, seated on a quadrangular marble base decorated with very fine gilt bronze flowers and fluted feet. Napoleon III, Louis XVI style. Based on a model by Jacques Caffieri for the Prince de Condé in 1773. (More images to be added.) Executed during the nineteenth century, this figure is fully in line with the eclectic taste of the reign of Napoleon III. Indeed, the Empress Eugenie brought the Louis XVI style up to date in her castle of Compiègne. Jacques Caffieri is one of the most famous bronze smiths of the eighteenth century. In 1715 he was admitted as a master caster and chiseler, and worked almost exclusively for the crown castles...
