Description
Condition: This sculpture is in perfect condition Bronze Dimensions with Marble Base: Height 14" x Width 12" Marble Dimensions:12" X 7" Height without base: 13" Weight :23 LBS Inventory : 18Y1377881 Original or Reproduction: OriginalThis exquisite bronze sculpture depicts the Hellenic deity Artemis, goddess of the hunt, wild animals, wilderness, childbirth, virginity, and young girls. Known for her association with the deer and the cypress tree, Artemis is shown here resting on the earth with a sacred deer by her side, her arm lovingly draped around its neck as she holds a bow in her other hand. As the goddess of the hunt, Artemis was particularly fond of deer, which were the only animals considered sacred to her. She was said to have fallen in love with these creatures upon seeing a deer larger than a bull with shining horns, and she caught five golden-horned deer called Elaphoi Khrysokeroi and harnessed them to her chariot. This stunning sculpture was crafted using the ancient lost-wax casting method and stained with a brown patina finish for preservation. The attention to detail is remarkable, from the intricate folds of Artemis's clothing to the lifelike expression on the deer's face. The sculpture is mounted on a black marble base and bears the signature of the artist, Milo. This sculpture is a true masterpiece, capturing the essence of Artemis's beauty and strength. It is a wonderful addition to any collection of ancient art or mythology, and a must-have for anyone who admires the powerful and enigmatic goddess of the hunt.

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.
