Details

French sculptor. He was a proficient Animalier sculptor producing well modeled groups of animals and equestrian subjects. Dubucand studied art under Justin Marie Lequien (1796-1881) and was also a student of the master, Antoine-Louis Barye. Dubucand made his debut at the Salon of 1867 with a wax model of a Dead Pheasant. He continued exhibiting at the annual Salons until 1883. Many of his initial submissions to the Salon were of wax models and then after they were successful he would resubmit them again in following years, but this time cast in bronze. Dubucand was fascinated by the people and animals of North African and successfully captured many scenes of wild and domestic animals of that area. His interest in the nomadic peoples of North Africa is reflected in his detailed portraits and equestrian groups of the African nomads. A few of his bronzes are patinated in the multicoloured style favoured by his teacher Barye and may have been cast in Barye's own studio. //
