Originating from the African continent, the giraffe is the tallest of all land-living animal species. Their scientific name is Giraffa camelopardalis, which is similar to its antiquated English name of camelopard. They are compared to having traits similar to that of the leopard and the camel. Their spots and the fact that they will drink large quantities of water when available to be able to survive extended periods in dry areas, are probably the reasons for that association. They tend to associate in groups of a dozen or so members. This sculpture shows a group of three giraffes galloping. Though, you won't be seeing this group running down the streets of Manhattan anytime soon. It is a pure bronze sculpture cast through the "Lost Wax Method" and mounted on a solid black marble base. Condition: This sculpture is in perfect condition. Bronze Dimensions with Marble Base:Height 18" x Width 9" Marble Dimensions: Diameter 9".
