Description
This is an exquisite lost-wax model of a resting German shepherd cast by the Susse brothers foundry. It is a very attractive representation of the proud canine. The dog's eyes are bright and alert and despite his resting posture, he remains tensed for action. The front of the integral base is signed in generous script. Pierre-Nicolas Tourgueneff (French, 1853-1912) was an animalier sculptor and painter. It is also inscribed "Susse Fre. Ed. Paris" (Susse Freres Editeurs) and "cire purdue" (lost-wax).
