Irénée ROCHARD (1906-1984)
Born January 16, 1906 in Villefranche-sur-Saône, Irénée Rochard developed an early interest in drawing and sculpture.
He studied in Paris art schools and followed the tradition of French animal sculpture, notably inherited from Antoine-Louis Barye and François Pompon.
His work is characterized by naturalistic representations, sometimes stylized, favoring movement, elegant lines, and observation of animal attitudes.
He created sculptures in bronze, in régule and in other materials, notably during the Art Deco period.
His favored subjects include panthers, lions, elephants, stags, horses, dogs, and birds.
He died in 1984, leaving behind a substantial body of work sought after by connoisseurs of 20th century animal sculpture.
