Status: This item has been sold
Sold by: Steve Sly Japanese Works of Art

As part of our Japanese works of art collection we are delighted to offer this magnificent lifesize Meiji Period 1868-1912 rendition of a wild boar, captured in a purposeful striding pose by the the well recorded artist Atsuyoshi working for the highly acclaimed Maruki company , a firm based in Tokyo and specialising in high quality carvings and sculptures. This captivating and very rare life size rendition has been finely finished throughout by an artist clearly well versed with anatomy and specialising particularly in wild animal subjects, usually always for the Maruki company. The end result on this occasion being a very humorous yet incredibly high quality sculpture that would certainly be the focal point in any room setting, the beast artist signed in script to the underside alongside the Maruki company seal.
