About the Item
Charming 19th-century bronze sculpture of a seated bear, captured in a lively, upright pose. The artist has rendered the animal’s fur with expressive surface texture and stylized detail, lending the figure a rustic, handcrafted charm. With its raised front paws and attentive expression, the bear appears animated and full of character.
The figure is mounted on a warm-toned marble base, subtly veined and softly polished. This piece is likely of Black Forest or Alpine origin, and would have originally served as a decorative cabinet or desk object—part of the tradition of small-scale animal bronzes popular in the late 19th century.
