Dying boar, after the hunter's bullet. Amalgam of broken gears and mechanism. Paumelle Foundry.
Thierry Benenati's Bloody Boar is a poignant work that captures the ultimate moment of the struggle between life and death. This wild boar, frozen in its final breath, evokes a brute force stopped by the relentless hand of fate. Its body, scarred by the impact of a hunter's bullet, is a complex amalgam of broken cogs and mechanisms, testifying to the violence of the moment.
Every detail of the bronze sculpture is a tribute to the power of this noble animal, now reduced to a symbol of the struggle for survival. The artist skillfully fuses the organic and the mechanical, creating a piece that speaks not only to the wilderness but also to the complex relationship between man and machine.
Offered at €26,000, this sculpture is a reflection on the fragility of life and the brutality of death, a powerful visual reminder that even the most formidable forces can be defeated. Sanglant Sanglier is a dramatic addition to any collection, a piece that never fails to captivate and provoke deep introspection.
