A boxing hare is a remarkable sight, and this limited edition Michael Simpson small single boxing hare bronze sculpture captures a boxing hare mid-leap.
It's easy to see why so many collect images and sculptures of hares. These wonderful country-dwellers are rarely seen but instantly memorable, with their characteristic loping legs and long ears. During the March breeding season, 'mad' March hares compete for females in frenetic boxing matches, and this has been stunningly captured here in foundry bronze, with Michael Simpson's unerring eye for detail and skill in capturing movement. Each of these collectable limited edition casts carries a hand-etched batch number, highlighting its rarity.
About Michael Simpson
World-renowned sculptor Michael Simpson creates breathtakingly lifelike sculptures inspired by the animal and plant life that abounds near his home town of Stoke-on-Trent. Perhaps appropriately in the famous pottery region, he loves the freedom of sculpting in clay before casting his creations in bronze or stainless steel. Michael works on several pieces at a time, translating his fascination with nature into emotive and tactile creations that are collected by the likes of rock star Tom Jones.
