Rizal made the most of the lonely isolation of Dapitan to exercise his creative talents.   While in the sleepy Mindanao town, he spent most of his leisure hours creating artistic  masterpieces - from religious icons and people to animals, such as this “Jabali”, which  may mean “javelina”, the Spanish word for peccary or skunk pig.\nAfter flourishing in antiquity, small animal sculptures were revived and brought  to perfection in the Renaissance and were brought back into fashion again beginning  in the mid 1830s to the first decade of the last century, what with that era’s  famous “animaliers” or sculptors of animals such as Antoine Louis Barye and  Rembrandt Bugatti, both of whom worked in bronze.  Novice “animalier”  Jose Rizal, who worked in terra cotta, plaster of paris, and clay, discarded  Neoclassical posturings of the animal and sought to bring the full drama  of nature to his piece of sculpture. The ease of workability of plaster  permitted a wide range of expression, enabling it to capture rough,  smooth, angular or sinuous animal forms, allowing Rizal to realize great  intricacies and delicacy of detail. Rizal emphasized not only on the  physical aspect of the animal but also its “character” and the essence  of the situation in which he placed it. If Rizal would have stayed longer  in Dapitan, he might have created an outstanding sculptural menagerie.   \nLeon Gallery is privileged that an artwork of the greatest Filipino of all  time, of indubitable provenance, is finally available at auction for the  first time in Philippine history.","lot_group":"SCULPTURE","lot_details_html":"<p><strong>Jose Rizal</strong> (1861-1896)<br /><em>Jabali (Wild boar)</em><br />signed and inscribed \"Dapitan, 1894\"<br />plaster<br />H:5 3/4&rdquo; x L:8 1/2&rdquo; x W:3 3/4&rdquo; (15 cm x 22 cm x 10 cm)</p>","alias":null,"hp":14000000,"bp":0.168,"isWithdrawn":0,"accounting_hp":14000000,"userBid":null,"isPaid":0,"userId":22,"lot_status":"SOLD","isDone":1,"bid_history_id":null,"reserve_price":null,"hammer_price":16352000,"fav":0},"image":[{"id":38484,"img_url":"https://leongallery.sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/v2/auction/61/89/lot/76.jpg","isFeatured":1}]},"increment":[11000000,12000000,13000000,14000000,15000000,16000000,17000000,18000000,19000000,20000000],"prev":75,"next":77,"count_bid":0,"bid_history":[],"tokenExpired":1}
