"Études de Félins" (Studies of Felines) is a collection of sculptures by the French artist Antoine-Louis Barye (1796–1875), who is widely recognized for his work in animalier sculpture, a genre focusing on the realistic portrayal of animals. Barye, considered one of the pioneers of this genre, had a profound interest in the anatomy and movement of animals, which is vividly reflected in his "Études de Félins" series.

This series exemplifies Barye's meticulous attention to detail and his dedication to capturing the essence of feline grace and power. Through his studies, Barye explored various poses and expressions of big cats, such as lions, tigers, and leopards, showcasing their muscular physiques and the dynamism of their movements. His work was informed by direct observation, often at the Jardin des Plantes in Paris, where he could study the animals in a relatively natural setting.

Barye's "Études de Félins" not only demonstrates his technical mastery in sculpting but also reflects the 19th-century fascination with the natural world and the Romantic movement's emphasis on the untamed aspects of nature. The pieces in this series range from small, intimate studies to larger, more dramatic compositions, and they often feature felines in moments of rest or in the midst of a hunt, highlighting the duality of their existence as both serene and ferocious creatures.

The significance of Barye's work lies in its influence on future generations of sculptors and its contribution to the animalier tradition. His "Études de Félins" remain a testament to his legacy as an artist who provided a bridge between traditional sculpture and the emerging naturalist approach of the time. Today, these works are celebrated for their artistic merit and are considered important examples of 19th-century French sculpture. They can be found in various art museums and private collections, where they continue to be admired for their lifelike representation and emotional depth.
