Description
Total Dimensions: Height 16'' x Width 23'' Approximate Weight: 40 LBS Original Reproduction: ReproductionThe statue itself is a two toned patina, dark and with an antique rustic green accentuating the detail and mimicking an aged effect. It is of she-wolf in a standing position over the two infants. She stands firm and has intricate detailing of a thicker mane around her neck and down her spine. Her ribs are accentuated and her ears are upright. She protects the boys with her body and shields them from harm. Underneath are Romulus and Ramus. One boy sit`s with his palms up under her breasts, his mouth just under her nipple. The other kneels and also has his palms facing upwards. They both seem to rejoice in the fact that they are being given nourishment. The sculpture rests on a square slab of bronze and is engraved in gold with the words Romulus and Ramus. It is made using the "Lost Wax Method" and is a two tone patina.

FAQ's
What material are your sculptures made out of?
All of our sculptures are made from100% hot cast bronze, and handmade in the ancient lost wax casting method. We never sell cheap cold cast sculptures or resins!
What is the difference between hot cast and cold cast bronzes?
Hot cast bronze is created by pouring a molten metal mixture into a mold. Before the metal can be poured, our artists must first create the mold on a medium such as clay, rubber, or wood. Each mold allows for a limited number of pours, and therefore a limited amount of sculptures can be created in any given round of production before the mold is destroyed and the artist must create a new mold.
Cold cast is actually made from resins and plastics which are painted over. They are cheaper, lighter, and less durable.
Generally speaking, hot cast bronzes are very time consuming and limited in their production, whereas cold cast resins can be mass produced and are inexpensive to create.
