"Sculptural Group Elephant And Okimono Tigers"
Sculptural group of the Meiji period (1868-1912), in patinated bronze, with bone tusks, glass tiger eyes and walnut wood root base, with bronze ink holder with enamels. Portraying a scene of struggle between two ferocious tigers and a mighty elephant, the skin of the latter appears incredibly realistic, as well as the tiger coat finished with streaks, typical details of the foundry of artists by the Japanese sculptor Genryusai Seiya, signature under the belly of the elephant.
