Sculpture

The whale is an imposing mammal that has fascinated all of us since we were children. A creature present in many tales that has often accompanied our dreams. This sculpture more precisely depicts a hand-made bronze sperm whale, where the spray of water that would come from the blowhole has been reimagined in a fairy-tale spirit, replacing the water with a beautiful black gorgonian with reddish tips (also a marine element). The gilded sculpture rests on a base of antique marble, which clearly emphasizes its representational character and marks it as a noble decoration of particular style.
