This stunning and rather large bronze figure is cast in exceptional detail and depicts a young boy / scholar reading whilst riding upon a bull. The bull is cast in beautiful proportions with his head slightly to one side whilst mid-stride. The box is then cast sat, cross legged, on top of a blanket upon the bull whilst reading a book and carrying a basket on his back. The young boy is cast in traditional cl...othing with a stunning innocent look upon his face.I believe the piece to be Japanese and of the meiji era.
