Hippopotamus Smooth Sided Statue by Francois Pompon 6.5L

This Hippopotamus stretches up its head and opens its mouth with the strength of a formidable foe. Sculpted by French animal sculptor Francois Pompon, he conveys the Hippopotamus form, mass, and dimensionality in a unique way with smooth, fleshy roundness. His sculpture has a simplified sophistication that would become characteristic of modern sculpture in the early 20th century. He did a series of many animals in this same style. Pompon studied under Rodin.
