White marble lion seated behind a scrolled cartouche on a pink pedestal
Seated Lion on a Pink Marble Pedestal Statue - 215cm $31,28800
Description

Erect upon a pink pedestal a lion sits, both forepaws laid across an upright scrolled cartouche. Its head is raised and turned and its jaws parted. The cartouche rolls into a volute at the head and again at the foot and carries a single long leaf down its face. The mane is combed into waves to the chest. The animal sits on a white cap, and that cap sits on a moulded pedestal of a warm pink stone. The two versions differ in how the lion sits to its cartouche: one square to the front, the other turned, on a shorter and wider pedestal.

Where Two Stones Have to Meet

A white figure on a coloured pedestal has a problem the eye finds immediately: the joint. Set white marble straight onto pink and the line between them reads as a fault rather than as a design, because two saturated colours meeting on a horizontal edge look like a repair. The cap solves it. It is cut from the same white as the figure and made deep enough to read as a band in its own right, so the eye goes white, white, pink rather than white, pink - a transition instead of a collision. That is why the cap is proportioned to be seen rather than minimised, and why its bed is worked flat to a closer tolerance than a hidden joint would need.

The pink in this pedestal is soft rather than strong, but it is enough to rule some settings out. Red brick fights it; so does terracotta paving and so do warm gravels. Against grey stone, pale render, slate or green planting it reads as intended - a warm note under a white figure. At 215cm overall the lion's raised head is well above eye level and turned, so the approach is best off to one side rather than square on. The cartouche faces outward and should be given a clear view.

Colour That Sets the Setting

Twenty-one to twenty-three weeks. Cutting the pink pedestal and dressing the white cap to sit upon it precedes the figure, and both beds are proved against each other. The pedestal mouldings are run and the stepped base dressed while the pink block is still on its own. The figure and cartouche then come from a single white block: the seated mass is roughed with the cartouche standing beside it as a plain tablet, Combed waves are separated down to the chest before the tablet beside them is shaped. The tablet is then worked to its volutes at head and foot, with the long leaf sunk down its face. The forepaws are cut over its top edge last of that. Assembly is final - pink pedestal, white cap, then the figure. No pins and no fillers occur in the figure; cap and pedestal are bedded, not glued. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops. Some 5,799kg across figure, cap and pedestal, each craned onto a poured concrete footing.

Matching cartouche beasts appear in animal sculptures, and coloured pedestals in marble sculptures.

Two large, black bear-shaped sculptures stand indoors near a window with a view of a yard. One sculpture is in the foreground with its back to the viewer, and the other faces forward, creating a mirrored effect. Trees and a chair are visible outside.
A shiny metallic bear sculpture stands on the corner of a modern buildings patio, mirrored by another similar black figure in the foreground. The area features minimalistic architecture with large glass windows.
