Greyhound

John B. Moll

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture is of a reclining greyhound, shown in a peaceful resting position with its front legs extended and back legs folded. The body displays detailed anatomical features typical of the breed. The material seems to be dark bronze with a slight patina. It is positioned on a rectangular base for stability and emphasis. The sculpture appears life-sized.
