Approx. 16” tall and 13” depth and 5.5” wide
Hello, this item is a contemporary bronze sculpture of a bighorn sheep or ram, signed Leonardo Rossi, presented standing on a rocky base with a black plinth. The animal is modeled in a naturalistic wildlife style, with attention given to the curled horns, alert head, muscular body, and elevated mountain setting. The warm brown patina on the body, darker treatment of the horns and legs, and greenish patination on the rocky base create a decorative outdoor or lodge-style appearance. The subject and treatment place the work within the late 20th to early 21st-century decorative bronze wildlife sculpture market rather than the market for major listed fine art bronzes, unless further documentation connects the signature to a recognized sculptor with established auction records.
The sculpture appears to be in very good condition, with no major visible losses, breaks, or structural damage. The patina appears stable, and the base shows expected surface variation consistent with bronze oxidation and display. At approximately 16 inches tall, 13 inches deep, and 5.5 inches wide, the piece has a good decorative scale and would appeal to collectors of wildlife sculpture, mountain animals, hunting lodge décor, and bronze animal figures. Based on the size, condition, material, subject, and current secondary-market demand for signed decorative wildlife bronzes, the fair market value is $400 to $800 USD.
