Bronze Panther Art Deco Decorative Sculpture

Superb sculpture depicting a panther in motion, captured in a supple, feline pose. This piece, crafted in dark patinated bronze, displays exceptional modeling quality: prominent muscles, harmonious proportions, and a dynamic silhouette. The feline adopts an elongated walking posture, lending the piece a strong, unseen visual presence. It can be attributed to Pierre Cauchois and is of the same dimensions. The sculpture rests directly on its paws, without a base, which accentuates the fluidity of the line and the elegance of the movement. The patina is even, and the overall condition is excellent. It is in good general condition, with a few discreet signs of wear consistent with age. See photo for a crack on the tail. A remarkable decorative piece, ideal for a modern interior, Art Deco setting, or a collection dedicated to animal sculptures.
