"Amazon On Horseback Attacked By A Tiger August-karl-edouard Kiss Bronze Statue Germany"
The mounted Amazon attacked by a LION is the work of the German sculptor Auguste Kiss. Caught in the middle of the attack, the characters convey the violence and emotional tension of the moment. The Amazon was installed in 1837 on the steps of the newly built National Museum in Berlin, standing alone for several years until Albert Wolff completed an accompanying piece, The Lion Fighter. CIRCA 1900. Beautiful green patina. Very difficult to find the pair and very good quality. Measures: 23x17x11 cm
