Frog on a Lily Pad by Anon Unknown, Cast Iron, Edition, 28cm high by 43cm wide, Animals and Birds, Water Creatures sculpture
Frog on a Lily Pad is a delightful cast iron sculpture capturing a frog perched on a lily pad. Measuring 28 cm high by 43 cm wide, it combines naturalistic form with playful abstraction. The frog sits upright, its head tilted slightly upward, as if scanning the sky. Its rounded body, compact limbs, and distinct eyes keep it clearly recognizable, while the simplified shape adds a decorative charm.
The lily pad beneath the frog supports the figure firmly. Its gentle curves and slight texture suggest ripples in water, adding subtle realism. Together, frog and pad create a balanced composition that draws the eye across the piece.
The sculpture is fully smoothed and polished, enhancing its tactile quality. This finish highlights the curves of the frog’s body and the soft folds of the lily pad. Additionally, a green patina covers the surface, giving the piece life-like colour and vibrancy. Hints of darker undertones add depth and contrast.
The combination of clean lines, careful proportions, and minimal details allows the sculpture to feel both whimsical and sophisticated. Its compact size makes it versatile for display indoors or in sheltered outdoor spaces.
Through its flowing shapes, subtle textures, and harmonious design, Frog on a Lily Pad evokes a sense of calm and gentle movement. It celebrates the charm of nature while remaining an elegant decorative piece. Collectors and nature lovers alike will appreciate its playful yet refined presence.
