In German "Vorzüglich" is the conformation rating given to the best of the best. It means "Excellent"
This sculpture is a limited offering of 50 pieces done in bronze using the lost wax method. I have tried to capture the excellence of the Deutsch Kurzhaar, known as the German Shorthair here in the US, shown doing what he has been bred to do for generations. Truly the master of the hunt!
"Vorzüglich" is approximately 8" x 8" in size and will be sold in a natural bronze patina. Each piece is numbered with a certificate of authenticity and are for sale.
