Standing 70 cm tall, this work captivates with its quiet strength and the precision of its modeling, particularly in the rendering of its fur and muscular forms. Its collar, adorned with a ring, underscores its protective role, while the natural patina of age lends the piece a noble authenticity. Likely created in the 19th century, this sculpture evokes the grand decorative pieces intended to grace vestibules, conservatories, or the entrances of bourgeois homes. A blend of power and serenity, this guard dog aptly illustrates the art of monumental terracotta, striking a balance between realism and sculptural presence. See less
