Vienna Bronze Dog - Pirate Pug - Hand-Painted - Funny Dog Figurine

This Vienna Bronze figurine effectively combines an authentic animal depiction with humorous absurdity. This hand-painted bronze dog figurine shows a small pug in the form of a fearless pirate. Armed with its wooden leg, crutch, eye patch, hat and sword, the litte pug displays seemingly human behaviours without loosing its animalistic identity. Those kinds of humanised depictions of animals became particularly popular at the beginning of the 20th century and have not lost any of their charm to this day.

Our bronze figurines and sculptures are created via an elaborate process which involves many individual steps. The main method of creation is the lost wax technique, which is a traditional procedure that is used in the creation of bronze sculptures. The quality of our sculptures is ensured by our strict quality guidelines and the fact that all of our pieces are refined by hand.

Vienna Bronze sculptures are mostly small statues that have been created since the end of the 19th century. Thematically, they can have many motifs. However, erotic figurines, exotic bronze sets, and small animal sculptures are among the more popular subjects. Furthermore, it is important to note that elaborate paintings done by hand and technical subtleties are their central criteria.
