Description
English: Barye produced a large number of sculptures, drawings and paintings of animals. His greatest fascination was for exotic animals – an interest he shared with Delacroix. Both artists frequently went to the travelling zoo that visited Paris around 1830, where they could study the famous tiger Atir at close range. Drama and combat are recurrent themes in Barye’s oeuvre.
Svenska: Barye utförde en stor mängd djurskildringar i form av skulpturer, teckningar och målningar. Framförallt fascinerades han av exotiska djur – ett intresse han delade med Delacroix. De var till exempel båda flitiga besökare av det kringresande zoo som förevisades i Paris runt 1830, där den berömda tigern Atir kunde studeras på nära håll. Också i Baryes verk är kamp och dramatik ett återkommande motiv.
