Kangaroo

Cleveland Museum of Art

Bronze sculpture of a kangaroo titled "Kangaroo" by artist Degas. The sculpture is dark brown with a reddish tint. The kangaroo is standing on a rock or base, with its front paws resting on the edge. The back legs are muscular and sturdy, with the tail extending behind. The ears are erect and pointed. The background is a gradient from black to gray. The overall mood is one of quiet contemplation, as if the kangaroo is lost in thought.
