Solid Foundry Bronze

Sculptor: Michael Simpson
Michael Simpson’s sculptures of shooting related scenes usually are set in the field, but with this brilliant action piece the figure is set on a river bank with his Cocker springing into work mode. This is the latest addition to the series and is published in an edition of 150.
This spectacular design is made in solid foundry bronze using the ancient method of lost wax casting. The design is finished by the art of patination where various acids are applied to the surface of the bronze and heat applied to create a deep rich brown patina. Then bronze is then sealed with a special wax which further enhances the colour and protects the bronze for years to come.
Your bronze is beautifully presented in a printed box containing a signed certificate of authenticity. The bronze is engraved with the sculptor’s signature and limited edition number, matching the certificate enclosed.
