Mene, unlike many other bronze artists, took a keen interest in the casting and chasing process for the production of his models and, from 1837, had his own foundry. This afforded him the opportunity to occasionally add details such as the presentation inscription here. The recipient "Le Poittevin" was almost certainly the French marine artist Eugene Le Poittevin (1806-1870), who was a member of Mene's intimate circle which also included animalier sculptors Rosa Bonheur (1822-1899) and Auguste Cain (1821-1894).
