Model 1873
Bronze, casting, assembly, patination
27.5 × 26 × 23.5 cm
Petersburg, late 19th – early 20th century
Signature along the base: “E. Lanceray”, cast by C. BertoThis rare bronze group, created by Evgeny Lanceray in 1873, portrays a peasant woman guiding cattle, accompanied by a dog. It combines lively movement with careful attention to costume and detail, reflecting Lanceray’s interest in everyday Russian life and ethnographic themes.
Evgeny Alexandrovich Lanceray (1848–1886)
Born in Morshansk, Tambov province, into a French family that had settled in Russia, Lanceray was the son of a railway engineer. He studied law at St. Petersburg University but received no formal artistic training, instead learning sculpture independently and working from life. He visited workshops of established sculptors, including Nikolai Liberich, and undertook study trips to Paris in 1867 and 1876, where he studied bronze casting and became acquainted with European art.Lanceray traveled widely across Russia, Ukraine, the Caucasus, the Crimea, Bashkiria, and Kyrgyz lands, and in 1883 visited Algeria. His wax models, later cast in bronze, gained great popularity. Many of his works carried strong national, historical, or ethnographic character, and he also created pieces devoted to the Russo-Turkish War of 1877–1878. In addition, he designed table services and desk sets.
In 1869 he was awarded the title of “Class Artist, 2nd degree” by the Imperial Academy of Arts, and in 1872 achieved the 1st degree. In 1874 he became an honorary free associate of the Academy, and from 1879 he was a member of the Moscow Society of Art Lovers.
A master of narrative plastic miniatures, Lanceray brought international recognition to Russian sculpture. His works were shown at the World’s Fairs in London (1872), Vienna (1873), Paris (1873), Antwerp (1885), and other cities. His bronzes were cast at all major Russian foundries and by private firms such as Chopin, Stange, Moran, and Berto, as well as at Ural ironworks. Today his works are preserved in the State Russian Museum, the Tretyakov Gallery, and other major collections. Karl Berto (Charles Auguste Bertault) Foundry. Studied under Barbedienne, Paris.
Period: 1889 – 1903.
In 1889 – 1890 the products were marked as Chopin & Berto.
Felix Chopin’s foundry has been passed over to Karl Berto in around 1890.

Bronze, malachite; casting, chasing, gilding, malachite mosaic.
A finely modeled Russian paperweight in the form of a peasant and a boy seated on a small sled, arranged as a compact genre group upon a rectangular malachite base. The elderly muzhik, with pronounced beard and traditional cap, braces himself behind the child, who raises one hand to his hat in a lively, almost theatrical gesture.
Folk themes entered artistic bronze of St. Petersburg in the late 1840s, in the context of a broader democratization of Russian art and culture. Bronze figures of vendors, peddlers, coachmen, and other popular urban types began to appear, echoing the imagery of genre painting and literary sketches devoted to everyday life. A landmark moment came at the Great Exhibition in London in 1851, where two large Demidov compositions of dancing peasants and street figures on malachite bases introduced European audiences to the distinctive combination of Russian bronze, malachite, and national genre subjects. By the 1850s, some of these multi-figure models were also reproduced as small individual bronzes, often made for use as paperweights.Starting price: 1000€

Le Devoir (Duty)
France, late 19th century
Patinated bronze, signed “E. Picault” on base, with stamp “Réduction Mécanique A. Collas”
Height: 77 cm
This finely cast bronze by Émile Louis Picault represents Le Devoir — “Duty” — a classical warrior symbolizing civic virtue, courage, and moral steadfastness. The figure stands poised, holding a sword, embodying the ideals of honor and devotion to one’s homeland. The work’s dynamic realism and noble restraint exemplify the heroic allegorical style that made Picault one of the most admired sculptors of the French Third Republic.Cast with Picault’s characteristic attention to anatomy and drapery, the sculpture bears the mechanical reduction stamp of A. Collas, referring to Achille Collas’s innovative 19th-century process for creating precise scaled reductions of large bronzes.
Émile Louis Picault trained under the Dutch sculptor Louis Royer and exhibited extensively at the Paris Salon between 1863 and 1909. His works often depicted allegorical, patriotic, and mythological subjects — celebrating labor, honor, knowledge, and heroism.

Model 1879
Bronze. Dimensions: 19 × 23 × 10 cm
St. Petersburg, late 19th centuryThis bronze composition by Evgeny Lanceray represents a mounted Bashkir herdsman, shown in dynamic motion, holding a lasso in his hand. The work belongs to Lanceray’s celebrated ethnographic series, inspired by his extensive travels across Russia and its borderlands.
The model was created in 1879 but reflects impressions from an earlier journey to Bashkiria in the early 1870s. Like many of Lanceray’s works, The Bashkir Herdsman combines vivid ethnographic detail with the sculptor’s gift for narrative and movement, making it one of his best-known works of small-scale realist sculpture.
During the sculptor’s lifetime and in the late 19th century, the composition was cast at the Chopin and Shtange foundries in St. Petersburg. In the early 20th century, it was also reproduced without foundry marks, both by large firms such as the Moscow workshop of A. M. Postnikov and by smaller private foundries in Moscow and St. Petersburg.
