| Description |
English: In the duke of Orléans' table centerpiece, the "Elk Hunt," a scene set in Mongolia, was originally placed on top of a small, temple-like base flanked with figurative statuettes by the sculptor Antoine Moine (1796-1849). It was placed next to the "Lion Hunt" at one end of the 19-foot-long centerpiece.
The firm of Richard et Quesnel initially tried to sand cast this sculpture but returned it to Honoré Gonon who, after restoring the model, cast it in separate pieces. Auguste Ottin (1811-90), the sculptor who assisted Barye in the production of the "Tiger Hunt," helped in assembling the pieces and finishing the surface. When Barye submitted this sculpture to the 1837 Salon, the jury overwhelmingly rejected it. |
