Pride of the Pamirs, Limited Edition Bronze Art Piece by Frank Entsminger
Frank Entsminger Bronze Art - Frank Entsminger of Frank Entsminger Bronze Art is donating a limited edition bronze art piece called "Pride of the Pamirs."  This limited edition depicts a Marco Polo Ram (Ovis ammon poli) of Central Asia, the Asian counterpart for our Dall or Stone sheep in North America.  Of the Argalis in Asia, the Marco Polo is thin horned, but with tremendous horn length into the high 60 inches and even low 70 inches.  Hunters consider the Marco Polo the "Holy Grail" of wild sheep.  The Pamirs are a Mountain Range where these big beautiful sheep live at extremely high elevations sometimes exceeding 16,000 feet above sea level.  This makes for the title of my piece, "Pride of the Pamirs."  Adult rams weigh 300-350 pounds, about the size of an average adult caribou. Words can hardly describe these beautiful sheep.  I tried to convey their beauty through this sculpture.  "Pride of the Pamirs" is an original bronze that can be colored in the painted patina (natural) of a Marco Polo or the traditional earth tones (buffed). "Pride of the Pamirs" measures 15.5" X 15" X 9".  Frank Entsminger is Alaska’s Premier Wildlife Sculptor, he has many beautiful art pieces on his website: www.frankentsminger.com. "Reserve must be met."
