A clear example of European animalistic plastic, based on the works of the famous French sculptor Antoine-Louis Barye (1796-1875). The composition is distinguished by a realistic interpretation of the image of the animal, carefully worked out anatomy, plasticity of the massive body and a detailed texture of wool. Despite the compact size, the sculpture has a significant weight - 611 g, which gives the product a tangible mass. It is made of artistic bronze, the surface of which has preserved a noble brown patina with natural metal glimmers on the protruding elements of the relief. It is installed on a decorative stone pedestal of a light shade. Fastening to the base is done using a screw with a straight slot.
