Lot 222:
A Large Mid-Century Modern Cast Brass Sea Lion Sculpture, circa 1970
Description
A substantial mid-century modern cast brass sculpture of a sea lion, likely of Spanish or European origin. The figure is rendered in a stylised, upright pose with an open mouth, featuring the simplified anatomical forms and smooth contours typical of the period. The sculpture displays a bright, polished golden lustre across the entirety of the form. While no maker’s marks are present, the quality of the casting and the aesthetic are consistent with decorative metalware produced during the 1960s and 1970s. Length approximately 15 to 16 inches.
