專家說明

Jean-Louis Grégoire, (d. 1890) was born and died in Paris. Training under Salmson at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, he exhibited at the Salon from 1867 and became one of the first Associates of the Artistes Français.

Persée et Andromède is one of Grégoire's figure compositional groups based on characters drawn from classical mythology. Here the bronze is mounted on a clock and forms a garniture: accompanied by pendant figures of water nymphs. Grégoire showed a plaster statue of Andromeda at the 1870 Salon and a marble of the same composition four years later. A single bronze group of Persée et Andromède, sold Sotheby's London, 15 March 1991, lot 124 (£10,800).
