Standing Lion

Christophe Fratin

Cleveland Museum of Art

The sculpture "Standing Lion" by Christophe Fratin depicts a bronze lion standing on a rectangular base. The lion faces left, its mouth slightly open, and its body positioned in profile. The sculpture shows the lion's thick mane, which is textured to resemble fur, and its tail, which extends behind it. The base appears to have some raised elements that could represent rocks or foliage. The overall color of the sculpture is a dark brown, characteristic of bronze. The lion's posture suggests it is in motion or poised to move.
