| "This
sculpture depicts a tiger on the prowl. Frozen mid-stride, all senses
are directed toward that sound or slight movement that might indicate
the presence of prey. The next move would be to drop even lower
to the ground and proceed forward slowly, haltingly, moving only
when the victim looks the other way. The tiger must get within striking
distance without being seen. The largest of the big cats, the tiger
is undoubtedly one of the most impressive animals to behold. I had
the distinct pleasure of sitting for about an hour with a beautiful
female Siberian tiger with nothing between us but the distance beyond
her lead. Very impressive, indeed!"
