Antique French Iron Hunting Motif Standing Weather Vane Sculpture, France circa 1900
This is an enormous hand made antique French iron hunting motif weather vane mounted on a standing iron base from France circa 1900. This unique object features a hand forged iron base that was originally mounted upon an outbuilding on a large estate outside Lyon in france. The hunting is especially excellent in the region and the motif of a hunter equipped with a rifle following his lead dog is especially appropriate. Situated directly behind the hunter is a smaller figure carrying a sack and barely visible are the upside down bagged game from the day's exertions. The hunter striding through the landscape is particularly effective and because the piece is finished on all sides it may be viewed with equal pleasure from any direction. The vane does spin upon its vertical support and is secured by a turned screw that allows it to freely travel.
