This bronze Mari-Cha Lion sculpture is made in the same period as the bronze Pisa Griffin sculpture. Their design, casting technique, and many other features are quite the same. They are both the most exquisite bronze animal sculptures of the medieval age.
(The Pisa Griffin and the Mari-Cha Lion are displayed opposite each other in the Museum of Islamic Art, Doha.)
In medieval Europe, the lion had multiple symbolic meanings and was often regarded as the symbol of strength, courage, and authority. It also symbolizes the king’s power and protection from Jesus. In medieval knight culture, the lion, as a symbol of knightly qualities, represents bravery and honor.
To make the perfect bronze Mari-Cha Lion sculpture replica, our artists will first make a clay model to replicate every detail of this sculpture. No matter the facial expression or the body lines, all parts of the Mari-Cha Lion sculpture clay model are hand-made by our experienced artists. The clay model will be continually modified until it is exactly the same as the original artwork. All the details are hand-cast by our artists, and their superb casting skills make this sculpture more vivid and lifelike.
