Cheetah Stretching Ingwe FoundryS31 Bronze Sculpture Maquette 3/15 Monogram BMR

About the Item

Bronze study of a stretching cheetah. RHS under the belly bearing Ingwe Foundry stamp, ‘S31’ or ‘S3I’, Edition 3/15, monogram BMR. Artist unknown. I have been unsuccessfully resarching who the artist could be. The stretching pose of the cheetah is contemplative with a graceful, ease and content expression suggesting its attunement and hierarchy within the landscape and the animal world. Its power is conveyed with a noble quality in the pose, the sleek form and the sinewy musculature. Beautifully handworked with rich brown patina. Almost certainly inspired by the work of Dylan Lewis who is widely recognised as one of the world’s foremost sculptors of the animal form, particularly the big cats and Ingwe was his foundry.

  • Sculpture Figurative Man Sitting Contemplation Bronze Manner Giacometti
    Located in BUNGAY, SUFFOLK
    - The composition is the timeless theme of contemplation in the manner of Alberto Giacometti. - Physical characteristics have been removed and reduced to create a pared down form which accentuates how the viewer receives and responds to this thinking/meditative man in a relaxed pose being with himself and what is around him. - The organic hand working is highly textured defining the work creating different perspectives and contours. - Modelled in resin with antique bronze finish - Signed Mendes - Alberto Giacometti is best known for his elongated figures, often walking or standing, as well as figural groupings in different spatial situations. Giacometti’s unique vision whittled his subjects down to heavily worked but stick-thin figures. - Opportunity to purchase a sculpture in the manner of one of the most important sculptors of the 20th century at a fraction of the cost of an original. Supplied on a custom made acrylic plinth...
