The first is one of Pierre Jules Mène's most popular dog groups and also exists as two individual sculptures, the crouching greyhound entitled Gisella, the taller entitled Jiji. The group was first exhibited in plaster at the Salon of 1848.
Mêne executed the original model of Ibrahim in 1843 and exhibited the bronze version at the Salon of that year. It was to be his first major equine study and followed by several versions of the Arab horse Ibrahim.
