Pierre-Paul David d'Angers
Victor Peter
1881 · Cast bronze with dark green patination · European Sculpture and Decorative Arts
This medal is a touching bow to a progenitor of the splendidly gifted sculptor and medalist Victor Peter, as it represents the grandson of the great medalist Pierre-Jean David d’Angers. An example was shown in the Salon of 1881 and the present one looks as fine as that in the Musée d’Orsay. [James D. Draper, 2014]
