The torso twists with the force of the shot. Every element of the composition is resolved around that single point of ground contact, giving the figure an arrested, kinetic quality that reads with equal force from distance and close range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCast Bronze, Hand-Finished on a Marble Plinth\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe figure is cast using the traditional lost-wax process, which allows the period clothing detail, collared shirt, long trousers, leather-soled tennis shoes, to be preserved with sharp clarity across the full scale of the piece. The surface carries a \u003cspan class=\"highlight\"\u003ewarm golden-brown bronze patina\u003c\/span\u003e, deepening to darker oxidation in the recessed folds of the fabric and the hollow of the grip. The tennis racket is cast integrally with the figure, braced through the wrist and forearm so the form holds its dynamic line without mechanical support. The plinth is a large rectangular block in pale green-white marble, with the name \u003cspan class=\"highlight\"\u003eHENRI COCHET\u003c\/span\u003e engraved in relief across the front face, providing a clean, monumental base that anchors the energy of the pose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 230cm and 600kg, this statue is scaled for institutional and prestige settings: tennis club entrances, hotel atriums, covered colonnades, sports academies, or open courtyards. The bronze patina is stable across all climates and the marble plinth suits both polished interior floors and formal external paving. The pale white and gold tones of the piece sit well against dark stone, mature planting, or rendered neutral walls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHandmade to Order, Fully Customisable\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePatina options include natural warm brown, dark antique, verdigris green, or a polished golden finish. The plinth inscription can be amended to a name, date, or institution of your choosing. Scale modifications are available for both reduction and increase.
