A Japanese Bronze Model of a Playful Dog with Bell Collar.
A finely cast Japanese bronze model depicting a lively dog captured in a dynamic, playful stance. The animal is shown crouching forward with extended forelegs and raised hindquarters, its tail arched upward and mouth open with tongue protruding, conveying an animated and expressive character. A collar encircles the neck suspending a loose bell beneath the chest.
The surface is carefully worked with incised fur detailing across the body, with subtle texturing to the legs and haunches. The facial features are alert and exaggerated, with rounded eyes and upright ears enhancing its spirited presence.
