About the Item

Painted clay sculpture depicting two dogs. Decorated in pastel green, it depicts one dog lying down with its mouth slightly open, while the other is seated with its ears erect and an attentive expression. Both have eyes with very expressive details. The sculpture's rectangular base is integrated into the whole, providing stability and complementing the work's classical aesthetic. The detailed design and posture of the dogs show two breeds, the German Shepherd and the Doberman, known for their loyalty and stateliness. With signs of ageing, minor wear, flaws and missing paint. Marked at the bottom ‘A Nova Decorativa, Coimbra’.
