Pheasant and Stoat

A beautiful original French bronze by Jules Moigniez, featuring a large male pheasant clambering upon a rocky outcrop, startled by a stoat hidden within the foliage. This sculpture is cast in very fine detail, with the pheasant's feathers clearly visible, as well as its sharp claws and spurs above the foot. The stoat is subtly positioned, visible when viewed from the side of the piece. The piece displays a particularly attractive patina which highlights the detail of the diorama. 

The bronze is signed on the front left of a rock face: "J. Moigniez" (Jules Moigniez).
