In the decades following the Civil War American sculptors began more and more to go to Paris to study — falling in with the more naturalistic and dramatic style exemplified by the works of Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux ( 1827 – 1875 ) and Antoine-Louis Barye ( 1796 – 1875 ) and other French sculptors.

Thenceforward Barye, though engaged in a perpetual struggle with want, exhibited year after year studies of animals — admirable groups which reveal him as inspired by a spirit of true romance, as in his Roger and Angelica on the Hippogriff ( 1840 ), drawn from an episode in Orlando furioso, and a feeling for the beauty of the antique, as in Theseus and the Minotaur ( 1847 ), " Lapitha and Centaur " ( 1848 ), and numerous minor works now very highly valued.

The mass of admirable work left by Barye entitles him to be regarded as one of the great animal life artists of the French school, and the refiner of a class of art which has attracted such men as Emmanuel Frémiet, Peter, Auguste Cain, and Georges Gardet.

Antoine-Louis Barye ( September 24, 1796 – June 25, 1875 ) was a French sculptor most famous for his work as an animalier, a sculptor of animals.

Born in Paris, Barye began his career as a goldsmith, like many sculptors of the Romantic Period.

Barye was no less successful in sculpture on a small scale, and excelled in representing animals in their most familiar attitudes.

No new works were produced by Barye after 1869.
