Notas : The above work is one of three artist proofs that were cast as part of the edition of fifteen bronzes. The artist has stated: "This sculpture is from the Leopard Creek set and is very typical of big cat behaviour; marking territory, scratching trees. In fact all of the big cats do this and sculpturally I find it a very interesting pose and composition. The tension of the claws pulling on the bark translates to the forearms and shoulders of the leopard and also to the curved back and the arched tail."
