The statue itself is a two toned patina, dark and with an antique rustic green accentuating the detail and mimicking an aged effect. It is of she-wolf in a standing position over the twin brothers, Romulus and Remus. She stands firm and has intricate detailing of a thicker mane around her neck and down her spine. Her ribs are accentuated and her ears are upright. She protects the boys with her body and shields them from harm. Underneath are Romulus and Ramus. One boy sit's with his palms up under her breasts, his mouth just under her nipple. The other kneels and also has his palms facing upwards. They both seem to rejoice in the fact that they are being given nourishment. The sculpture rests on a square slab of bronze and is engraved in gold with the words Romulus and Remus. It is made using the "Lost Wax Method" and is a two tone patina and this is a numbered limited Edition Sculpture. Condition: This sculpture is in perfect condition.
