Sculptor, American, 1885 - 1966

The sculpture depicts a person in motion with a dog. The figure is an archer holding a bow in their left hand and an arrow in their right hand. The archer is shown mid-stride, one leg stretched forward and the other pushing off the ground. The dog is positioned below and slightly in front of the figure, appearing to run alongside the archer. The sculpture is made of dark bronze with a polished, smooth finish and varying shades of brown patina. It is mounted on a rectangular base with a marble-like texture.
