Description
A beautiful pair of bronze Cocker Terrier dogs, signed, on a green marble plinth Bronze with a marble plinth. Measures 12 cm x 13 cm x 15 cm. This sculptural group comprises a pair of dogs arranged in an attentive and relaxed pose on a naturalistic plinth. One of the dogs is reclining whilst the other stands upright with its head raised, creating an interesting contrast in postures and volumes. The anatomical rendering is precise, highlighting the musculature, the fur rendered with incisions and irregular textures, and the restrained expressiveness of the faces. The dark patina of the bronze, enriched by subtle nuances, reinforces the realistic character and visual depth of the piece. The craftsmanship reveals careful execution and a solid understanding of animal modelling, characteristic of the 19th-century European sculptural tradition, particularly linked to the fascination with animals. The work stands out for its compositional balance and the technical quality of the casting and finishing, constituting a representative example of decorative bronze sculpture from the period, with strong aesthetic and collector’s appeal.
