Dancing Storks from "Amimals" series (2019) Bronze sculpture by Veaceslav Jiglitski

A contemporary animal bronze of two storks caught in their courtship dance, necks stretched to the sky and golden beaks raised side by side. The artist reduces the birds to pure, flowing line: long legs rise from a domed base and lean into one another, one bird sweeps its wings out wide, the other lets them fall in slow, curling arcs. A warm dark patina with a lightly hammered surface runs across the bodies, lifted by fine golden edges and the two polished-gold beaks. A larger, more exuberant companion to the artist's "Storks": the same pair, long a symbol of fidelity, new life and home, now in full celebration.

At around one and a half times the scale of "Storks", it is a statement piece for a console, sideboard or entrance hall. Cast in bronze using the lost-wax method and mounted on an integrated domed bronze base. Signed by the artist and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. Made to order: a hand-cast piece rather than a stock object.
