Casts of the present model, given an earlier date, were sold at Sotheby's New York, 26 January 2006, lot 451 ($11,400).Further literature: Fogelman, Fusco and Cambareri, Italian and Spanish Sculpture, Catalogue of the J.

Lot 861

Antoine-Louis Barye (1795-1875), 'Ratel Denichant des Oeufs' (honey badger stealing eggs from a nest), circa 1875, the animal portrayed on a naturalistically modelled tree trunk, inscribed BARYE to the maquette, approximately 10cm high, 15cm wideProvenance: British Private CollectionParis-born Barye studied under Biennais and Bosio, and was admitted to the Ecole des Beaux Arts in 1818. Barye would spend time studying and sketching the animals at the Jardin des Plantes, where he first discovered his enduring interest in portraying animals. Barye's attention not only to animals' anatomical details but also their behaviours and temperaments was unprecedented, and his vividly modelled groups are often considered the foundation of the prolific animalier movement. Nineteenth-century Art Critic Théophile Gautier once even referred to Barye as 'Michelangelo of the Menagerie'.While this small and sweetly rendered model depicting a 'ratel' or honey badger raiding a nest of eggs is considered a later work by Barye (appearing only in the later catalogues), it shows the sculptor's unrivalled ability to capture animals' individual characters.Two casts of this model were previously offered at Christie's New York, BARYE BRONZES: AN IMPORTANT PRIVATE COLLECTION, 25 April 2003, lot 37 ($2,868) and 38 ($2,151). Please note, the dates for Antoine-Louis Barye are (1795-1875) and not as printed in the catalogue. Condition Report: The bronze has a shiny greenish brown patina, interspersed with areas of lighter brown.There are one or two scratches to the back, and the bronze would benefit from a dusting.Otherwise, it appears to be in perfectly presentable condition.Condition Report Disclaimer

The rear is irregular and hollow-cast (to the head), and is of irregular shape.There is a small loss to the right side of the chest, as can be seen in the photographs.There is some lighter residue surrounding the buckle on the sash, which may just be a bit of dirt.There is a slightly raised patch of lighter metal near the socle, either an inconsistency or possibly to secure the lot to the later square socle.Some slight rubbing to the little plinth.Condition Report Disclaimer

The crewel work panel with repairs and some losses (see images) and a small number of holes (see images) Some fading, discoloration and dirt / staining to the panel. The crewel work panel basically consists of two carefully stitched together halves (see images) The later paper lining to the reverse of the panel now almost entirely lost/ torn away and only glued down elements to the timber frame to the reverse remain. From the reverse of the frame it can be seen that some thin elements of timber have been glued and nailed down to secure the structure and screwed in metal brackets have been applied to the upper corners of the reverse of the frame also. The thin stretcher of timber across the reverse of the frame is likely a later addition/ replacement and is attached with a small screw at each end. A section of turning above the left hand foot section appears to have been replaced and has been put together with old elements (see images) . This appears to be an old replacement but is lighter in colour generally. The screen is generally of solid structure and stands well however the joint of the left foot to the upright would benefit from being re-secured. Please refer to additional images for visual reference to condition. Condition Report Disclaimer

A Mouseman Thompson of Kilburn armchair, with leather upholstered back and seat and with typical mouse trademark. Width across arms 62 cm. Height to top of back 112 cm (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: This chair is in first class condition and would appear to have been barely used. There are no loose joints and no damage to the oak. The leatherwork is all in very good condition. When looking at the chair from the rear, the leather has originally been lighter in colour. There has been some form of slightly darker and warmer polish applied to the back panel which is now a closer colour to the seat cushion.

CONDITION REPORT: The chair has come in for sale from a local estate. The back, arms, turned supports and seat are of good colour and do not appear to have had any significant work. The whole of the section beneath the seat has a form of painted stain over the lighter coloured oak. It is difficult to see what work has been done to the chair. The front rail and turned legs to the stretched seem to be original. The front right hand foot has been tipped. The left hand foot block may have been replaced, it is difficult to tell. The front stretcher is clearly old. Both side stretchers are period. The rear stretcher would appear to be also. The rear left leg has been tipped as has the right. This is from the point just below the stretcher line and up into the stile in a stepped fashion.
