The sculpture uses the stone’s natural warm browns, smoky grays and milky translucence to suggest the subtle coloring of the animal’s coat, while finely carved texturing gives the body a lifelike sense of movement and form. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Both elegant and playful, the lioness rests on a polished black marble base. From the expressive face to the carefully modeled paws and tail, the work reveals Zadora’s technical precision and imaginative approach to hardstone carving. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Canadian-born artist Andreas von Zadora-Gerlof has earned international acclaim for his gemstone sculptures and jewelry.
