Rhodesian Ridgeback Sculpture in bronze

This ridgeback bronze is similar to the first one created in 2009; however, this bronze dog has it's head turned to the left, missing the dew claws and face is different.

The patina on this piece is more of a lighter red in order to match the clients images.

This dog and the 2009 bronze will be used for as the subject dogs in order to complete the lion and Rhodesian Ridgeback composition. The dogs will be posed in action.
