A l'instar de Barye pour le XIXe siècle ou de Bugatti, George Lucien Guyot est sans conteste l'un des sculpteurs animaliers les plus talentueux du XXe siècle. Issu d'un milieu modeste et après une formation de sculpteur sur bois, le Jardin des Plantes est pour lui la meilleure école. Il y observe longuement les animaux, tendant à reproduire tant leur physique que leur psychologie. S'il y parvient grâce au bronze, cette puissance expressive se retrouve également dans ses pastels.
Guyot n'a que 21 ans en 1906 lors qu'il expose son Ours avant de présenter régulièrement ses œuvres principalement au Salon des Artistes Français, Salon des Indépendants et au Salon d'Automne. Il devient également membre du Groupe des Douze fondé par François Pompon et rassemblant Jouve et Poupelet notamment. L'œuvre de G.L Guyot, passionné d'animaux exotiques particulièrement, s'attache à libérer toute la noblesse des animaux par le biais d'un certain classicisme caractéristique de la période Art Déco.
Like Barye in the 19th century or Bugatti, George Lucien Guyot is without doubt one of the most talented animal sculptors of the 20th century. Coming from a modest background and after training as a woodcarver, the Jardin des Plantes was the best school for him. There he observed animals for a long time, trying to reproduce both their physique and their psychology. If he succeeds in doing this through bronze, this expressive power is also found in his pastels.
Guyot was only 21 years old in 1906 when he exhibited his Ours before regularly presenting his works mainly at the Salon des Artistes Français, Salon des Indépendants and the Salon d'Automne. Il devient également membre du Groupe des Douze founded by François Pompon and gathering Jouve and Poupelet in particular. The work of G.L. Guyot, who was particularly passionate about exotic animals, sought to liberate all the nobility of animals through a certain classicism characteristic of the Art Deco period.Read MoreAdditional informationAuction informationBuyers' ObligationsALL BIDDERS MUST AGREE THAT THEY HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD BONHAMS' CONDITIONS OF SALE AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THEM, AND AGREE TO PAY THE BUYER'S PREMIUM AND ANY OTHER CHARGES MENTIONED IN THE NOTICE TO BIDDERS.
