MeleagerBronze, gegossen; Meleager aus der griechischen Mythologie mit einem Jagdspeer in der Hand und einem Jagdhund an der Seite; auf Sockel montiertH. 43 cm (ohne Sockel)Privatbesitz, WienIn der griechischen Mythologie war Meleagros der Sohn von Oineus, dem mythischen König von Kalydon, und seiner Frau Althaia. Da Oineus die Jagdgöttin Artemis beim Opfer umgangen hatte, schickte diese einen die Gegend verwüstenden Eber. An der Jagd auf ihn nahmen viele der griechischen Helden teil, wie die berühmte Jägerin Atalante. Ein Pfeil Atalantes traf den Eber zuerst, Meleager aber erst erlegte ihn. Sein Fell schenkte er Atalante, zu der er Zuneigung gefasst hatte. Das brachte die Brüder von Meleagros' Mutter Althaia gegen ihn auf. Im Streit erschlug er diese, worauf seine Mutter ein bis dahin gehütetes Holzscheit verbrannte, von dem geweissagt war, dass nach seinem Verbrennen Meleager sterbe. Die Weissagung trat ein, worauf sich auch Althaia umbrachte.

Seine ersten Arbeiten waren vor allem Louis-XV-Kommoden, klassische, elegant geformte Modelle mit diskreten Rocaillen-Bronzen; es scheint, als habe er später üppigeren und reicheren Bronze-Zierrat bevorzugt. Die Kommoden, Sekretäre, Encoignuren und Chiffoniers aus der Transition- und Louis XVI-Epoche wurden allseitig mit Landschaften, Tieren und Szenen "inspirées de l'Extrême-Orient" geschmückt. L. Foureau schuf auch ein paar wenige Möbel mit Blumen- und Vogelmarketerien. (P. Kjellberg, Le mobilier français du XVIIIe siècle, Paris 1989; S. 326f.)
