This bronze sculpture illustrates a gull in full flight, wings outstretched and claws extended forward, skimming a wave. The seabird is placed on a flat, rectangular black marble base contrasting with the color of the patina: green for the wave and brown for the animal. This creation attributed to Erget (19th-20th century), animal sculptor, is interesting because of its dynamic representation of movement and the artisanal skill necessary to capture such detail in bronze. ******** Period: Early 20th century Excellent condition.
