About the Item
Carved in France circa 1880, this striking eagle sculpture captures the commanding presence of a bird of prey in exquisite detail. Sculpted from a single piece of variegated marble, the figure rests atop a naturalistic rocky base and features subtle feather incisions enhanced by natural veining in the stone. The surface reveals beautiful tonal variations from warm beige to smoky gray, adding depth and realism to the carving.
The eagle’s piercing gaze is brought to life with inset glass eyes, a detail that lends an intense and lifelike expression to the otherwise still figure. Measuring 11.75 inches high by 3.5 inches wide and 5 inches deep, this finely executed piece blends academic realism with decorative charm.
Elegant and evocative, this 19th-century sculpture would make a distinctive accent in a library, study, or curated collection of antique animalia. Excellent condition with light wear consistent with age and material.
