John Cox, Bassett Hound, Bronze, 93 cm long
Bassett Hound by John Cox. Larger than life, realistic bronze sculpture of a bassett hound dog. 93cm long by 35cm wide by 40cm high
Bassett Hound by John Cox is a beautifully crafted bronze sculpture that captures the charm, weight, and character of this beloved dog breed. The piece measures 93 cm in length, 35 cm in width and 40 cm in height. The sculpture is larger than life which allows the viewer to fully appreciate its presence and detail.
Cox has sculpted the Bassett Hound with remarkable realism. From the drooping ears and soulful eyes to the heavy folds of skin that define the breed’s unique appearance. The body is low and elongated, with sturdy legs that emphasize the hound’s stance. The sculpture not only conveys physical accuracy but also captures the dog’s personality: loyal, gentle, and slightly comical.
The bronze surface is worked with subtle textures and patination, adding depth and lifelike qualities to the piece. Light catches the details of the fur and contours, enhancing the naturalism. This also gives the sculpture a warm, timeless quality.
As with many of Cox’s works, the piece strikes a balance between lifelike representation and artistic interpretation, making it suitable for both private collections and public display. Whether placed indoors or in an outdoor setting, the sculpture invites viewers to engage with it, evoking affection and admiration for one of Britain’s most endearing breeds.
This Bassett Hound stands as both a celebration of the animal itself and a testament to John Cox’s mastery as a sculptor in bronze.
