Sculpture, Bouledogue - 5 cm - Bronze - 1900

Antique patinated bronze figurine - Bulldog/Pug "watchful" - Vienna Bronze Style - Late 19th / Early 20th century
Description:
Charming collectible figurine in solid bronze with a medal patina, depicting a small dog (French Bulldog or Pug) in an expressive pose, mouth slightly open and ears erect.
The piece stands out for its great fineness of chiselling, notably:
The coat detail: rendered by fine grooves across the entire body.
The collar: particularly detailed with a visible buckle and raised bells in relief.
The expression: a lively gaze and a dynamic stance typical of animal works from the late 19th century.
Condition: Very good condition. Beautiful original patina with slight traces of natural wear at contact points (tips of the ears, paws), which attests to its age.
