Pair of Antique Bronze Figures of Cherubs and Animals

About the Item

Full of humour and narrative detail, this joyous set of two figural sculptures are charmingly cast in bronze to depict young boys playing with animals. One of the figures shows a boy in draped clothing holding a dog to his chest, while another dog pulls at his clothing from behind. The other sculpture shows a cat on the shoulder of a young boy, who is shown trying hold a birds nest out of sight of the preying cat. Both figures are set on circular veined pink marble bases.

The chieftain who is portrayed in the second figure is wearing traditional Native American clothing...
