Hello, this item is a contemporary bronze sculpture titled Mestizo, mounted on a circular green marble base, depicting a stylized hybrid animal form that combines zoomorphic elements with expressive, modernist abstraction. The sculpture presents a compact, rounded bronze body with an elongated head and open mouth, from which emerge two sweeping, organic horn or wing like extensions finished with a green patinated surface. The modeling, surface treatment, and expressive distortion align with late 20th century to early 21st century Latin American influenced contemporary sculpture, where themes of hybridity and identity are frequently explored under the concept of mestizaje. The bronze bears an incised signature on the body, visible in the detail images, though the signature is not clearly legible and cannot be confidently attributed to a known, widely documented sculptor. A small plaque on the marble base reading “Mestizo” appears to function as a title rather than a foundry mark. The overall dimensions are approximately 20 inches wide by 12 inches high, set on a 10 inch diameter marble base, with a total weight of approximately 30 pounds.
The sculpture appears to be in good overall condition, with natural surface wear, patina variation, and minor abrasions consistent with handling and age, but no evidence of structural damage, repairs, or casting flaws visible in the images provided. The marble base is intact, with light surface wear and no major chips or cracks observed. As an unsigned or unidentified contemporary bronze with decorative and sculptural appeal rather than established art historical attribution, comparable works of similar scale, material, and presentation typically achieve secondary market values in the range of USD 1,200 to USD 2,500.
