The Life-Size Reclining Cow and Calf Bronze Sculpture stands at 150cm and presents a naturalistic grazing group: a full-size cow sculpted with legs tucked beneath her body and head raised in quiet alertness, accompanied by a smaller reclining calf in the background. Together they form a composed, unhurried scene drawn from rural life and rendered with the weight and permanence of cast bronze.
Each piece is cast using the traditional lost-wax method, which allows the sculptor's finest surface detail to be preserved in the final metal. Across the flanks and shoulders of the cow, hand-tooled hide texture captures the natural fold and pull of skin over muscle; the face carries the same attentive stillness found in life. A dark bronze patina with blue-green verdigris oxidation deepens across the surface, lending the sculpture an aged, collected quality that suits both formal and informal settings. The calf figure in the background is finished to the same standard, ensuring the group reads as a coherent composition from any angle.
At life-size scale and weighing 1,000 kg, this sculpture commands significant outdoor space with ease. It is suited to parkland, estate lawns, courtyard gardens, and broad institutional grounds where it can be placed directly on turf or stone without a formal plinth, exactly as shown. The dark patina holds well against green landscape and warm stone alike. Indoors, a large atrium, reception hall, or gallery-scale room can accommodate the group as a centrepiece; the naturalistic pose and traditional character pair naturally with classical architecture and warm interior palettes.
We offer a range of patina finishes beyond the verdigris shown, including warm honey bronze, dark antique brown, and polished natural bronze. Scale adjustments are available, from a reduced garden version to monumental public installation sizing. If you wish to commission a specific breed, altered pose, or paired group composition inspired by the work of Fernando Botero, our studio team will work directly with you on drawings before production begins. Contact us before ordering to discuss your requirements.
