Crane, Ian Nutting, Cast iron, Unique, 166cm high by 77cm wide by 36cm deep, Metal, Animal, Bird, Figurative, Nature sculpture

This piece by Ian Nutting depicts a crane in a natural, alert pose, as though it’s standing and looking around. The use of cast iron gives it a strong, solid presence and a somewhat timeless or rustic quality, reinforcing its connection to nature.

Conceptually, the sculpture captures both the elegance and strength of this bird. The realistic form and posture suggest a careful observation of wildlife, while the heavy metal material grounds the piece in permanence. In a garden setting, it could evoke feelings of calm, balance, and a subtle dialogue between art and the natural world.
