An Impressive Pair of Late 19th Century Carved Carrara Marble Recumbent Garden / Gatekeeper Lions

$20,000 The wonderfully hand carved life-size lions are laying, front legs stretched, with their heads and chest raised at attention. The excellent quality of the lions face, body and features almost certainly means that they were commissioned to guard a large chateau or building.
