Description
This heartwarming lost-wax bronze sculpture captures a tender moment of childhood as a sister sits and reads aloud to her little brother. Cast with exceptional detail, this reading statue features the young girl and boy sitting together on a bronze bench as the little brother rests his head in his sister’s lap while she reads from an open book held above him. The little boy is fully engaged in her reading as he points upward at the book as though asking a question.
The time-honored lost-wax casting technique captures the lifelike details in both the children’s clothing and the textured bronze bench designed to look like a wooden bench. The girl’s dress and the boy’s shirt are given a verdigris patina, offering a beautiful contrast to the rich, warm tones of the polished bronze skin. This sculpture is a beautiful addition to libraries, parks, schools and gardens, encouraging kids to read and learn.
