Description
Bronze Children Piggyback Garden Statue
This is a beautiful, large-scale bronze sculpture, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century, embodying the timeless style of playful figural art popular in gardens and public spaces. The piece captures a tender, joyful moment between two children: a boy, smiling and carrying a smaller child (a girl with a ponytail) on his back in a classic “piggyback ride.” The boy carries a bouquet of flowers clutched to his chest, and his shoes are tied together and dangling. The base bears a tag reading “Bronze Elite by Henri,” indicating it was produced by Henri Studio, a known manufacturer of high-quality cast stone and bronze garden décor. The material is bronze cast metal, finished with a beautiful, rich blue-green verdigris patina that is desirable for outdoor pieces. The statue is in very good overall condition, displaying the expected patina and minor surface wear consistent with outdoor display, but no major chips, cracks, or damage are visible. The intricate detailing, especially on the faces, hair, and clothing, remains crisp. The estimate measurements are based on the provided dimensions. H 47″, W 17″, D 23′ (Base). See photos.
Note: Pickup/ Transport required. Contacts available post auction.
