Irenee Rene Rochard, French, 1906 to 1984, a large bronze sculpture depicting a head of a horse. Signed, I. Rochard, on the sculpture. Mounted on a rectangular shaped marble base. Rene Rochard is known for Realist style bird and animal sculpture. Rochard not only sculpted in bronze but also in ceramic wood, granite and marble. He became adept at giving his subjects a fluid realism that brought out their personality, their gentleness or their fierceness. He created hundreds of animals in their daily attitudes with such a delicacy that we feel we are witnessing a frozen moment in time.
