About the Item

A striking bronze sculpture of a standing greyhound rendered with exceptional precision and possessing a beautifully mottled green patina. Measuring 21 inches high, 21 inches wide and 5 inches deep, the piece has a commanding yet elegant presence, capturing the breed’s signature lean musculature, poised stance, and quiet alertness. The sculptor’s attention to detail is evident in the finely modeled ribcage, slender legs, and subtly turned head, giving the figure a lifelike sense of movement and character. The patina enhances the contours of the form, lending depth and a refined, time‑softened surface that reads as both artistic and anatomical. This is a versatile decorative object - it would be equally at home on a console table, mantel, or entryway pedestal and its narrow depth allows it to sit comfortably in tighter spaces. It is a classic subject executed with sophistication and ideal for interiors ranging from traditional to modern.
