About the Item

Pair of Lifesize Bronze Lion Fountains on Pedestals, 19th Century Monumental Outdoor Statues, Priced for pair (two pairs available) Two monumental bronze lions from a Greenwich Connecticut mansion. These fine Grand Tour bronze full bodied lions perched on bronze bases and ready to attack! This set of four outdoor statues have lived poolside spewing water from their mouths at a Greenwich Connecticut mansion for decades on their rectangular pedestals bases. The faces and mane on these lions have been executed with incredible detail; the bodies are as well cast as anyone could wish for. Truly lifelike these grand tour bronzes have an incredible patina - a high copper content as evidenced by the blue green oxidization which have occurred due to decades of precipitation. Can purchase one pair or both pairs. Bronze England, 1860s Provenance: Property of a Gentleman, Greenwich CT D'Agar Gifford-Mead, London 61"L x 41"H x 24"W

Antique Bronze Lion Sculpture 19th Century Brown Patinated Roaring Lion Statue
Located in Wembley, GB
Antique 19th Century Bronze Lion Sculpture, Naturalist Animalier Style A powerful and finely cast antique bronze sculpture of a lion, dating to the 19th century, embodying the majesty and strength of the king of beasts. The lion is captured in a dynamic stride, with muscles tensed and mouth open in a fierce roar, a masterful portrayal of motion and authority. Executed in dark brown patinated bronze, this piece demonstrates superb craftsmanship and anatomical precision, reflecting the European Animalier tradition that flourished in the 19th century. The deeply chased mane, sinewy body, and expressive face reveal both artistic sensitivity and technical mastery. The lion’s curved tail and forward stance lend a sense of fluid energy and balance. At 31 cm in length, this sculpture commands attention without overwhelming the space — ideal for a mantel, study, or collector’s cabinet. Its naturalistic detailing and rich patina make it a timeless statement of power, courage, and refinement. In very good antique condition, with gentle age patina and no visible repairs or losses. Key Details Material: Bronze with dark brown patina Style/Period: 19th Century European Naturalist / Animalier Subject: Lion, striding and roaring Dimensions: Length 31 cm (approx.) Condition: Very good, with natural age patina Use: Collector’s display, interior décor, fine art sculpture This sculpture exemplifies the grandeur of 19th-century Animalier art, when bronze lions symbolized power, bravery, and imperial dignity. A work of both artistry and strength, it enriches any setting - from classic interiors to contemporary design - with timeless elegance.
