Detailed description
Sculpture pair "Bull and Bear", bonded bronze version
In the 16th century, the Spanish introduced bullfighting to the New World. However, the Mexicans changed the rules without further ado and sent the bull into the arena with a chained grizzly. The poet Don José de la Vega transferred this picture to the scene at the Amsterdam Stock Exchange in 1688. Since then, bull and bear have been as much a part of the stock market world as Dow Jones and Wall Street.

Alles gut gelaufen. Skulpturen wie erwartet.
Bronze powder is polymer-bonded. Special polishing and patination techniques give the surface of the casting an appearance similar to the bronze.
A plastic work of sculptural art made of wood, stone, ivory, bronze or other metals.
While sculptures from wood, ivory or stone are made directly from the block of material, in bronze casting a working model is prepared at first. Usually, it is made of clay or other easily mouldable materials.
The prime time of sculpture after the Greek and Roman antiquity was the Renaissance. Impressionism gave a new impulse to the sculptural arts. Contemporary artists such as Jorg Immendorf, Andora, and Markus Lupertz also enriched sculptures with outstanding works.
