About the Item

Presented is a bronze sculpture of two hunting dogs. One dog is depicted with his nose to the ground, having caught the scent of the hunt. The other dog points ahead, his body positioned to start the chase. The sculpture was cast using the lost wax process, which offers intricate detail to the dogs’ fur and musculature, as well as the grass along the base. Hunting scenes were common in medieval and Renaissance art, found in oil paintings and embroidered tapestries. Hunting during the medieval period was a sport exclusive to the aristocracy, as well as an essential part of court etiquette. Depictions of people with a hunting dog, hawks, or falcons therefore signaled status. The sporting tradition of the hunt continued well into the 16th and 17th centuries, with dogs depicted as integral to the hunt, as well as a constant companion to the hunter. Recognized for their unparalleled sense of smell, acute vision, and incredible stamina, dogs were bred for specific types of hunting, including bird and waterfowling, fox and deer hunting, or hunting smaller prey like rabbit. After the establishment of The Kennel Club in the UK in 1873 and the American Kennel Club in 1884, breed standards were introduced and dog portraits and art increased in popularity. Condition: Very good condition. Bronze sculpture with attractive dark patina. Some wear to the top of the dogs’ bodies and head, but overall definition is excellent. Raised oblong base. Unmarked and unsigned.

Located in Colorado Springs, CO

Presented is an original signed bronze sculpture by American artist Veryl Goodnight. The sculpture is called "Come Forth A Dream" and depicts four running horses, galloping together with free-spirited and unbridled energy. The patinated bronze was cast in 1987 in a very limited edition of only 25. This specific bronze is signed, dated, and numbered 19/25. Veryl Goodnight(b, 1947) is a celebrated contemporary American artist working in Southwest Colorado. Her studio ranch is situated between Durango and Mesa Verde National Park and the dramatic landscape, abundant wildlife, and fellow ranching community provide endless inspiration for her art. Her many years spent in the West, observing, painting, and sketching her surroundings, gave Goodnight a profound awareness of the mannerisms of ranchers and animals alike. This experience translates directly to her art. Goodnight has monumental sculptures across the United States, in Europe, and Japan. The most notable is “The Day The Wall Came Down...

Vintage Cast-Iron Eagle Sculpture, Early 20th Century

Located in Colorado Springs, CO

This is a cast-iron figural eagle doorstop, circa early 20th century. The eagle is depicted with wings spread wide, perched and mounted to a square marble base. The eagle retains traces of its original gilt surface and is embossed with “F.O.E.” at its midsection, possibly referring to the Fraternal Order of Eagles. The eagle is both the national bird and the national animal of the United States. The eagle motif has been widely used throughout American history, most notably as part of our Great Seal. The founders of the United States were fond of comparing their new republic with the Roman Republic, in which eagle imagery, usually the golden eagle, was prominent. On June 20, 1782, the Continental Congress adopted the design for the Great Seal of the United States...
