This is an original G.C. (Gerry) Wentworth bronze sculpture titled "Foxy Ladies". Gerry Wentworth was a Great Falls, Montana artist who grew up in the era just after Charles Russell's life. He was largely self taught and spent the majority of his life working in painting, sculpture and wood carving. Wentworth's works have been widely exhibited in such places as the C.M. Russell Show, the Phippen Art Show and the Frank Tenney Johnson Show. In 1981, he won Best of Show at the Northwest Americana Art Show. This bronze depicts a pair of foxes shown in wonderful detail. The bas is made from solid walnut hardwood with a brass placard that reads "Foxy Ladies / G.C. Wentworth". The sculpture is numbered 1/20 and has been signed by the artist. The bronze is in very good condition. It measures 6" x 6" and is 4.5" tall. The piece comes with a printed biography of the artist and a Certificate of Authenticity. The original gallery retail price for this bronze was $1,200.
