This sculpture captures a moment of raw tension and survival with striking realism and energy. The panther’s body is stretched in a low, predatory stance, its muscles taut and tail extended, conveying an urgent readiness to strike. Beneath it, the writhing snake and scattered prey heighten the sense of imminent danger and conflict, creating a dynamic interplay of predator and adversary. The detailed textures of fur, scales, and rock provide a tactile richness, while the weathered green patina adds depth and drama, emphasizing the primal power and relentless drama of nature frozen in a single, dramatic instant.
