About this work

This is a sculpted tiger crouched on a flat base, its body twisted in a tense, coiled pose. The fur is rough and textured, with deep grooves showing muscle and movement. Its front paws are slightly raised, as if ready to pounce, while its tail curls around its body. The sculpture’s rough surface makes the animal look wild and powerful. The base has carved patterns, adding extra detail. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this sculpture in person.
