A PAIR OF FRENCH SILVERED-BRONZE RENAISSANCE ARQUEBUSIERS BY EMILE GUILLEMIN
Pair of silvered bronze sculptures depicting Renaissance arquebusiers. Both figures are signed 'Emile Guillemin' on the bases.
Emile Coriolan Hippolyte Guillemin (1841-1907) was a French sculptor who worked mainly with bronze and is associated with the Belle Epoque. Guillemin made his debut in the Paris Salon of 1870 where he exhibited a pair of Roman Gladiators, Retaire and Mirmillon. He showed work at the Salon of Paris from 1870 to 1899, and in 1897 received an honourable mention there.
