Lot description

A finely cast patinated bronze sculpture depicting a Nubian boy leading a laden camel. The work captures an intimate moment of daily life with remarkable naturalism and movement, reflecting the Orientalist fascination of late 19th-century French sculpture. The modeling and detail recall the influence of Antoine-Louis and Alfred Barye, whose works similarly combined realism with exotic themes.
