    Persée ou la Naissance de Pégase (Perseus or the Birth of Pegasus): large group in patinated regulé depicting Perseus and the winged horse Pegasus.

    Large sculpture signed E Picault and stamped "Salon des Beaux-Arts" and "fabrication Française, made in France".

    Perseus or the Birth of Pegasus is a famous episode from Greek mythology:
    Danae, locked in a bronze tower by her father because he feared an oracle (which predicted that he would be killed by his grandson!), is seduced by Zeus, who has transformed himself into a shower of gold.
    Perseus was born of this union. To protect him, Perseus is taken in by fishermen and grows up.
    As an adult, our hero is entrusted with the mission of killing Medusa, the Gorgon who terrorizes mankind and has the power to petrify any mortal who looks into her eyes.
    Perseus kills the Gorgon, and Pegasus is born from Medusa's severed neck.
    Pegasus was entrusted to Perseus' son, Bellophoron, with whom he performed many feats, and is also said to have created a number of springs with the stroke of his hooves.

    Emile Picault (1833-1915): French sculptor frequently exhibited at the Salon des Artistes between 1863 and 1914,
    His work includes busts and sculptures of mythical figures and warriors.
