Executed in solid metal with a dark, naturally aged patina, the piece emphasizes expressive proportions, elongated limbs, and a strong sense of movement—hallmarks of modernist figurative sculpture from the mid-20th century.
The sculpture’s handcrafted quality is evident in its textured surface, subtle asymmetries, and sculptural welds, giving it an authentic, artist-made presence rather than a mass-produced feel. Compact yet visually impactful, it works beautifully as a shelf sculpture, desk accent, or conversation piece in modern, industrial, or eclectic interiors.
Its intimate scale and thoughtful composition make it especially appealing to collectors of mid-century modern, brutalist, and abstract figurative art.
Estimated Year of Manufacture: Circa 1955–1970.
