This is powerful sculpture of a Marlin fish. They are known to be one of the fastest species of swimmers reaching 110 kilometers per hour (68mph). It is thought to be named after the Marlinspike that sailors use for knots as it also has a large spike. In this sculpture it thrusts itself out of the water, caught suspended in the air, its tail almost completely free of the water in which it dwells. Its body is an elongated muscle that is detailed in the green finish, its stomach a light bronze patina. The nose is pointy and sharp and its eyes deep and mystic. It jumps for freedom and shows its strength in this daily act. The base is a circle of black marble. This piece is cast using the Lost Wax Method and is 100% Bronze with a two tone brown with green patina. Bronze Dimensions with Marble Base: Height 27 X Width 14 inches. Weight: 22 LBS.
