Description

WILLIAM ROBINSON LEIGH (American, 1866-1955)
Buffalo, 1956
Bronze with patina
16 inches (40.6 cm)
Ed. 2
Signed and numbered on base: W.R. Leigh
Bedi Makky Foundry Mark

PROVENANCE:
Private Collection of Gregory Perillo, a student of the artist.

This majestic bronze buffalo was cast after Leigh's death by his wife Ethel Traphagen Leigh. Although the edition number included on the bronze reflects that this was intended to be a series of thirty, it is unlikely that the entire run was ever completed. There are less than a dozen known editions of this casting in existence.

Alternate Artist Spellings: "Leigh, William", "Leigh, William Robinson", "William Robinson Leigh"
