About the Item

Bronze sculpture with a dual green and brown patina, signed Nérin on the base. This work depicts a roaring lion, its mouth wide open, revealing its teeth and tongue. The lion's body is in a dynamic pose, with its front paws stretched out as if preparing to pounce. The well-defined muscles suggest power. The whole rests on a Black Cihigue marble base. This sculpture is distinguished by the quality of its craftsmanship, capturing the essence of the lion's movement and strength, as well as by the artist's signature, which adds value to the piece. ******** Period: Early 20th century Excellent condition.
