Antoine-Louis Barye

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture depicts a deer lying down. It is made of green material that resembles bronze, with a slightly weathered look. The deer is positioned on a rectangular base of the same material. The sculpture captures the deer resting in a calm pose, with legs tucked under its body and head held upright.
