A LARGE BRONZE TIGER SCULPTURE
by Atsuyoshi
This finely crafted bronze captures the commanding presence of a roaring tiger in exquisite detail. The
sculpture depicts the tiger with its hind legs bent and its tail elegantly curled upwards. The composition
draws the viewer’s eye towards the animal’s head, raised in a striking display of power.

meticulous artistry. Atsuyoshi worked with the Maruki company during Japan’s Meiji period (1868–1912),
an era famed for producing some of the finest and most substantial Japanese bronzes.
