You may never want to come face to face with one of these in personbecause once it sets its eye on you, there's nowhere to run or hide.The black Panther is one of the sexiest wild cats to strut the jungle.Black panthers are melanistic colour variants of several species oflarger cats. Wild black panthers in Latin America are black Jaguars,in Asia and Africa black Leopards, and in North America black Jaguarsor possibly black Cougars! No matter which one of these majestic darkcreatures creeps your way it is best to make yourself scarce andadmire from afar.Watch from the safety of your home as this Panther creeps down atilted mountain side. The muscles in it's legs ready to pounce. It'stail casually slinking behind. It's eyes set firmly on something inthe distance. Notice the detail in the massive paws that it would useto pin down its prey. This is perfect for all wild cat enthusiasts whodesire to get close but know better than to encroach on their habitat.100% bronze, handmade and fully detailed, this is a brown patinasculpture with using the Lost Wax Method, mounted on a square blackbase and is signed by artist Milo.World famous sculptor "Milo" is the artistic partner of the LynnForbes School of Sculpture-and is offering an exclusive signature inthe wax of every piece of his items that is Custom Cast with EuropeanBronze Finery. In effect it makes EACH SCULPTURE an ORIGINAL sinceeach one is different than the next (similar to a Limited Edition).Again, Milo-our partner-IS THE ORIGINAL SCULPTOR of this incrediblework of art. Milo was born in Paris in 1939; Milo lived most of hischildhood in Andalusia, Spain. Influenced by an artistic familybackground, he began sculpting at the age of seventeen. Afterapprenticing with several accomplished sculptors both in America andSpain, he began his own work focusing equally on steel and bronze.Horses and other animals were a natural direction of his work tofollow. Surrounded by horses as a child and witnessing the fightingbulls of Spain gave him an instinct for the inherent drama of theseanimals. Combining a special cement mixture with steel has allowed himthe fluidity of metal with the timelessness of stone. This processenables him to capture the essence of the animal's nature. Thecharacteristic rough texture and movement of line make Milo workeasily identifiable in both cement and bronze. Condition: This sculpture is in a very Good condition.
