Bronze Child with Frogs Garden Fountain Head - in the style of Edith Parsons

About the Item

In a tranquil garden bathed in the soft hues of dawn, there stands a captivating bronze statue, a testament to the artistry of a bygone era. This enchanting masterpiece portrays the innocence and wonder of childhood frozen in time. At its center, a cherubic child, captured in exquisite detail, stands balanced on ball surrounded by fountain frogs. The child's eyes gaze intently at the small, glistening amphibian cradled gently in their tiny hands. Every feature of the child's form is meticulously crafted, from the tousled curls of their hair to the dimples that playfully adorn their rosy cheeks. The bronze sculpture is not just a celebration of youth but also a tribute to the natural world. The frogs, cast in lifelike precision, gleam with verdant shades of green and bronze, its delicate webbed feet seeming to quiver with the promise of a leap. Its bulging eyes exude a sense of curiosity, mirroring the child's own fascination. As the sunlight dances upon the bronze surface, it imparts a warm, glowing patina to the sculpture, casting enchanting shadows that seem to breathe life into this timeless moment of childhood wonderment. This bronze masterpiece stands as a testament to the enduring magic of innocence and the profound connection between humans and the natural world.
