This exquisite pair of 14 inch tall sculptures from the Collection Français by the J.B. Hirsch Company is a rare and historically significant find. Crafted using the original molds of Auguste Moreau—rediscovered in France after World War II—these sculptures embody the enduring elegance and craftsmanship of 19th-century French artistry. The first sculpture depicts a young French peasant girl, her delicate features radiating innocence and charm. She is adorned in a flowing light green dress, a simple headscarf, and a light brown bodice, all intricately detailed to capture the essence of rural life. In mid-stride, she turns her gaze toward her male counterpart, evoking a sense of connection and narrative depth. The second sculpture portrays a strong and handsome French peasant man, his distinguished handlebar mustache adding to his character. He wears an open green shirt, brown trousers, and a hat, exuding the rustic charm of a hardworking laborer. In his left hand, he firmly grips a wooden rake, its base resting on the rocky terrain near his foot, while his head is turned slightly to the right, as if anticipating the girl's approach. Both figures carry baskets brimming with grapes, symbolizing the abundance of the harvest season. The scene is set on a textured, rocky base adorned with wheat and a tiller, all rendered in deep green, reinforcing the rural authenticity of the composition. The sculptures are mounted on elegant, round bases that flare outward at the bottom, featuring a refined vertical fluted pattern highlighted in gold. This subtle yet striking contrast between rustic charm and refined sophistication elevates their artistic allure. As mid-century creations with roots in the masterful work of Auguste Moreau, these sculptures are more than just decorative pieces—they are historical treasures that capture the timeless beauty of French peasant life. A remarkable addition to any art collection, they stand as a testament to both tradition and artistic excellence.
