A brown patina reglet proof entitled "La rencontre", signed by the brothers Louis Auguste and François Hippolyte Moreau.
Large in size and charisma, this work in excellent condition depicts a couple of young peasants sharing a moment of complicity. Their posture is realistic and airy. In motion, the curly-haired young man, wearing an open shirt, looks at the young lady, placing his hand on her shoulder. The gracefully curvaceous woman turns to her suitor with a smile. She's holding a rake held in place by a bale of hay.
Light and harmonious, this refined work is a perfect example of the Frères Moreau's savoir-faire.
Louis Auguste Moreau, born in Paris in 1855 and died in Montgeron in 1919, was a renowned French sculptor. He exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français from 1875, where his works regularly won awards. He was awarded a 3rd-class medal of honor in 1880, a bronze medal at the 1889 Paris Universal Exhibition and another bronze medal at the 1900 Universal Exhibition. His academic and Art Nouveau works were often signed with his brother François "L & F Moreau".
