About the Item
This powerful terracotta sculpture by artist Chen M. is a striking example of modern animalier art. The baboon is not shown in a sweet or docile posture, but rather in a raw, primal stance – mouth wide open in a roar, muscles tensed, fangs bared. The emotional intensity and sheer expressiveness of the piece are truly remarkable.
The sculpture measures 40 x 34 cm (approximately 15.75 x 13.4 inches) and stands 40 cm high (about 15.75 inches). The colors are beautiful: deep, warm earth tones with subtle variations that highlight the textures of fur and skin. The piece is in good condition, with only minor damage to the lower canine teeth (see photos). These small imperfections do not detract from the presence or power of the work.
Chen M. is a highly skilled artist known for his vivid, expressive depictions of animals. His craftsmanship and sense of movement and emotion are exceptional. If you're unfamiliar with his work, it’s well worth looking him up online — his portfolio is filled with beautiful, masterfully executed pieces that radiate life and intensity.
This sculpture is a fantastic example of his work and a standout piece for any collection of expressive, modern animal art.
