About the Item
A rare and charming 19th-century bronze sculpture of a sea lion, captured in an elegant, lifelike pose with its head gently tilted upward. The smooth lines and refined modeling of the body are enhanced by a beautiful, warm patina that has developed naturally over time.
The animal rests on a pale, organically shaped alabaster base that closely resembles an ice floe—an inspired and playful choice that adds a touch of wit to the composition. Sea lions are an unusual and delightful subject in 19th-century animalier art, making this piece a unique find for collectors who appreciate less commonly depicted species.
