Running Lurchers by Marjan Wouda, Bronze, Signed, Edition 5 of 6, 170 cm width
Running Lurchers by Marjan Wouda is a dynamic bronze sculpture that captures both speed and elegance in a moment of frozen motion. Signed by the artist and numbered 5 of 6, this limited-edition work stretches an impressive 170 cm in width, giving it a commanding presence while still maintaining graceful refinement.
The sculpture portrays two lurcher dogs running in unison, one close behind the other. Their lean forms, elongated legs, and fluid movement are faithfully represented in bronze, a medium that gives weight and permanence to their fleeting energy. The mid-brown patination enhances the surface, adding warmth and subtle depth to the muscular forms and sweeping lines.
Lurchers are known for their speed, agility, and hunting instinct. In this piece, Wouda highlights not only their physical prowess but also their spirit of freedom and play. The lead dog appears fully extended, muscles stretched in pursuit, while the second follows with equal intensity. As a result, the composition conveys rhythm, balance, and a powerful sense of momentum.
Moreover, the scale and detailing invite viewers to walk around the piece, experiencing the dogs’ movement from every angle. The interplay of polished highlights and deeper patina catches the light, further enhancing the impression of speed.
Running Lurchers evokes vitality, companionship, and the joy of motion. Marjan Wouda, celebrated for her animal sculptures, once again succeeds in transforming observation into art. Consequently, this work becomes not only a tribute to the lurcher but also a meditation on grace, strength, and the fleeting beauty of movement.
