This extraordinary, bronze greyhound dog sculpture was modeled by Pierre Jules Mene during the late 1800s. Pierre-Jules Mêne was a French sculptor, animalier, and zoologist.

This bronze sculpture depicts a greyhound dog in a playful pose, looking down with its left paw raised. This sculpture is stamped "P J Mene". The detailing of this elegant dog is absolutely exquisite, and his pose is so regal. He is the perfect size to fit beautifully on a mantel and to draw all the attention in the room directly to him. If you are a collector of bronze canines, he is certainly one you will want to add to your collection. His charm and elegant presence cannot be overstated. This sculpture weighs 8 lbs. less
