This spectacular matched pair of large and rare Emile Louis Picault cold-painted bronze sculptures, crafted in France circa 1890, showcases exquisite polychrome decoration and original signatures “Picault.” These extraordinary figures embody the famed French sculptor’s celebrated Egyptian-influenced works, highly sought after by collectors.
The male Pharaoh stands regally on a column base, wearing a nemes with uraeus, clutching a sword and raised shield, symbolizing sovereignty and divine authority. His companion, likely the Great Royal Wife, exudes dignity with a Vulture Crown, adorned with a falcon feather headdress, reflecting protection from the goddess Nekhbet.
Renowned for allegorical and mythological subjects, Picault’s detailed costumes, ornate headdresses, and jewelry reflect Belle Époque romanticism and the 19th-century fascination with Egyptian art. Provenance from a private estate via Heritage Auction, this pair enhances any decor with historical and artistic prestige.
