This piece, ‘At the Races’ (Large, Bronze) is part of an edition of hare sculptures created by sculptor, Donnacha Cahill, and is such an adorable, quirky and fun piece of art (captured so beautifully here in our photoshoot). This sculpture – at approx 32″ tall including its stone base – makes an instant impact wherever it is placed; immediately making you smile and perfectly hitting that sweet spot where professional art and fun combine. WE LOVE THIS SO MUCH.
Although clearly whimsical in subject matter, the piece is a very strong and impactful sculpture, in form and in colour. Donnacha’s pieces aim to spark the imagination and create conversation and ‘At the Races’ certainly does that! This particular hare is patinated expertly in a beautiful rich brown and with shiny polished bronze ears and tail etc as the most adorable highlighting.
Due to the size of this piece (and its immortal nature, being cast in bronze) this would be a superb talking piece to have outdoors, in your garden, or indeed near your entrance! (With the binoculars, this would be so cute, as he watches everyone who comes in or out!).
Donnacha’s work sells here at home and also internationally – he has exhibited in places such as Galway’s Volvo Ocean Race and Electric Picnic – most recently in Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival 2022 – and is fast becoming a must-have in terms of collectability.
