An extraordinary and substantial pair of monumental, functional art statement statues manufactured in 1996 by acclaimed South African artist Willie Botha. Standing at a commanding height of nearly 90cm, these imposing floor-standing pieces are expertly crafted using a cold-cast bronze technique—an amalgamation of actual bronze powder and polyester resin—giving them the rich weight, texture, and authentic patina of foundry bronze. Designed as a striking blend of fine art and functional architecture, both pieces feature the artist's incised signature and a 1996 copyright mark on the base. The pair is in good vintage condition, exhibiting minor surface wear, light scuffing, and minor paint loss along the edges of the stepped plinth bases consistent with age and display, which does not detract from their magnificent visual impact.
