This sculpture shows the relationship between parent and child. Even animals have the natural instinct to love and nature their children, even when they are being pests. Here you see a baby bull being curious and frisky as children are; with the utmost curiosity he begins to lick his father's tail. The father bull is spooked with unexpected surprise that his son has given him. This sculpture depicts a funny yet touching moment between animals and the parent child relationship, depicting the patience and time that it takes to be a parent. This sculpture was cast using the "Lost Wax Method" and is mounted on a marble base. This sculpture is signed by Milo. World famous sculptor "Milo" is the artistic partner of the Lynn Forbes School of Sculpture-and is offering an exclusive signature in the wax of every piece of his items, which are Custom Cast with European Bronze Finery. In effect it makes EACH SCULPTURE an ORIGINAL since each one is different than the next (similar to a Limited Edition). Again, Milo-our partner-IS THE ORIGINAL SCULPTOR of this incredible work of art. Milo was born in Paris in 1939; Milo lived most of his childhood in Andalusia, Spain. Influenced by an artistic family background, he began sculpting at the age of seventeen. After apprenticing with several accomplished sculptors both in America and Spain, he began his own work focusing equally on steel and bronze. Horses and other animals were a natural direction of his work to follow. As a child he was surrounded by horses and witnessed the fighting bulls of Spain gave him an instinct for the inherent drama of these animals. Combining a special cement mixture with steel has allowed him the fluidity of metal with the timelessness of stone. This process enables him to capture the essence of the animal's nature. The characteristic rough texture and movement of line make Milo work easily identifiable in both cement and bronze.Condition: This sculpture is in a very Good condition.
