Arab Stallion
by DUBUCAND, Alfred, Sand cast bronze, 22 x 24 cm
Dubucand was a prolific sculptor who created a variety of subjects while specializing in Animalier models. Some of his more unusual bronzes depicted Arab life in French occupied North Africa, including this model of an Arab Stallion standing alert with his ears pricked and neck arched. The bronze shows fine details to the horse’s mane and tail, his musculature is also well sculpted.
