Highly detailed and exceptionally well-proportioned, this almost 12-inch-tall sculpture beautifully illustrates the athletic, muscular physique and refined lines characteristic of a Whippet or Italian Greyhound. This mid-century modern style whippet stands at 11.75, iis 10.75 long ans is 3 inches wide. It is made of bronze and had dark aged patina on it from years of use. Rendered in a compelling, alert "paw-up" stance, the figure features an integrated molded collar and a rich, dark patinated finish that enhances the subtle musculature of the chest and ribs. A timeless decorative statement piece, it adds an effortless touch of Art Deco sophistication and Hollywood Regency charm to any library shelf, mantle, or desk console. Unsigned. I was so lucky to find this piece im the Treasure Valley of Idaho. See less
