Beauty and power were captured in this breathtaking hippopotamus mother and calf bronze statue.  The mother hippo is in a standing position with her head lifted upwards to the sky.  Her powerful mouth is open exposing huge canine teeth.  The hippos’ impressive front scissors are a great juxtaposition to the calm calf standing at her side.  Tremendous time was spent in sculpting the original clay to ensure every muscle and detail was captured accurately.  This is a sold-out edition that is no longer available.  If you would like to commission Art of Bronze to create a masterpiece like this for your property, call and talk to a representative today.

  • Maintenance

    Bronze lasts forever and will never rust, warp or contort. It is an alloy (a mixture of metals) and will oxidize over the years. This process will not hurt the statue. In fact, it can enhance the beauty by turning the statue many wonderful shades of greens, blues, whites and yellows. For the client that wants to maintain the original patina/coloring of their newly acquired work of art, Art of Bronze has several secrets. Every statue and placement will have different requirements and it is best to discuss your needs with Art of Bronze.
