This cast bronze hound, with a hare caught gently in its jaws, feels plucked from the walls of some imagined French hunting lodge—or better yet, the dreamlike halls of the Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature in Paris, where art and animal intertwine. Rich with texture and myth, the piece is mounted to a leafy backplate teeming with oak leaves and acorns, symbols of endurance and wild woodlands. Its scale makes it delightfully functional—as a sculptural door pull, a hook for leashes or towels, or simply a curious object to admire. There’s something almost allegorical in the way the hound gazes out, part noble guardian, part whimsical trophy. Whether in a country house or a city flat longing for a bit of rustic soul, this piece brings a dash of wilderness, a wink of old-world romance, and a whole lot of character.
