Bronze sculpture on granite base.

Story about the sculpture:

Most artists do not like it when someone stands behind their back and comments on their work. Creation requires concentration, detachment from distracting stimuli from the outside, wandering in one's own fantasy undisturbed by anything and anyone. The only world in which the artist wants to move at that moment is his own inner world.

So I imagined what the famous Rembrandt would have done if he was interrupted while he was painting by some wise guy who interfered with his work, guided him, gave "good advice" and criticized...
Maybe he would warm him up and send him away. And maybe he would just pull down his pants without saying a word and show the critic his ass. Just like on this sculpture...


Important information:
Even if I state that there are 3-5 copies of a specific sculpture, each of them is actually an original. The technique of my work is atypical and I have to model every single piece of the same sculpture again and create a mold into which the bronze is then poured. Despite over 40 years of experience, even I cannot model any of the other variations of the same motif completely identically. There are minor differences between them, even though in principle it is the same work.
Sometimes it can happen that the work shown in the photo has already been sold in the meantime, and in the case of another order, I have to model this motif again from the beginning and have it cast into a new form. In this case, the time for sending the work is around 3 weeks, and it must be taken into account that this sculpture will differ in a few small details from the depicted work.
But the advantage is that, for the above reasons, the purchased work is unique, and a completely identical work can simply never exist.
