About the Item

A monumental Spanish bronze sculpture from the 1950s, depicting a bear lying on its back with paws raised. Originally conceived as a table base, this impressive work combines naturalistic animal representation with functional design. The finely detailed fur and expressive features showcase the sculptor’s craftsmanship, while the strong form and weight provide both stability and visual impact. The bronze has developed a rich, time-worn patina, enhancing its depth and texture. With its commanding scale and dual role as both sculpture and design object, it stands as a remarkable example of mid-century Spanish bronze artistry. Dimensions: Height: 72 cm (28.3 in) Width: 125 cm (49.2 in) Depth: 65 cm (25.6 in) Weight: 100 kg Period: Mid-20th Century (1950s) Place of Origin: Spain Materials: Patinated Bronze Condition: Very good vintage condition with a naturally aged patina consistent with time and use.
