The composition captures a nude female figure in a powerful running motion, arms extended outward and body leaning forward as if suspended mid-stride. Salmones masterfully conveys momentum and tension, giving the sculpture a sense of weightlessness and forward propulsion.

The figure’s textured bronze surface reveals the artist’s hand through expressive modeling and subtle variations in patina. These tactile surfaces contrast beautifully with the minimalist Lucite base, which visually elevates the sculpture and creates the impression that the figure is floating within space.

The sculpture is signed and numbered by the artist and marked:

V. Salmones
4/10

indicating that this example is number four from a limited edition of ten casts. The piece also includes the original Certificate of Authenticity issued by the artist, confirming its authenticity and edition.
