Sculpture "Royal Hunt"

The sculpture “Royal Hunt” is a true work of art by our master bone carvers. It shows an episode of the old Russian game of boar hunting. Russian people have loved hunting since time immemorial. The excitement of hunting, a duel with a strong forest predator, competition with other hunters and dexterity in the number of trophies turned hunting from a trade into entertainment and art. It was in the third quarter of the 17th century that court hunting became a permanent occupation of the Russian tsars. It was a special world with its own ceremony, designed to demonstrate to its subjects and foreign guests the splendor and grandeur, authority and power of the government and state. Foreign ambassadors, merchants and travelers were amazed at the sight of the ceremonial hunting trips of the Russian tsars. Made from mammoth ivory on a wooden stand. The composition will be a great gift for true art connoisseurs, history buffs and hunting enthusiasts.
