The artist was able to accurately capture the details of the military uniform, including the traditional kilt, belt and rifle that the soldier holds vertically in front of him.
At his feet, a small dog adds a touch of life and complicity to the scene.
The rectangular base on which the sculpture rests gives the whole a stability and elegance which highlight the meticulous work of the bronze.
The medal patina brings depth and richness to the reliefs, accentuating the play of light and the textures of the metal.
Carlier's work is part of an artistic tradition where realism and attention to detail are paramount.
This bronze demonstrates not only the artist's expertise, but also his sense of visual storytelling, paying tribute to Scottish soldiers and their history.
