Inspired by the royal artisanal brass cast sculptures deemed court art from more than 1,000 years ago, this brass leopard sculpture with a bronze finish pays homage to the King of the Forest to the Benin people The leopard. This animal is sacred and one of the most prominently depicted in Benin art. Shrouded in myth, it is unsure how the leopard became a royal symbol, however it is empirically known to be sacred to the Oba (king), symbolizing authority, loyalty of subjects, status, and harmony between forces, like a yin and yang energy, that every successful Oba should possess.
