Loet Vanderveen: “Antelope” (1988) – Monumental 26-Inch Bronze (#36/500)

Americal Eclectic is proud to offer a rare, large-scale masterwork by the late Loet Vanderveen. This 1988 “Antelope” (Model 140) stands as a testament to the artist’s ability to reduce the complex form of African wildlife into a single, flowing line of bronze grace. Measuring a commanding 26 inches in length, this piece captures the alert, streamlined posture of the antelope with polished accents on the horns that contrast beautifully with the deep, hand-applied patina of the body.

As Edition 36 of 500, this is an early casting from a highly sought-after 1980s series, carrying the weight and presence required of a true gallery centerpiece. Hand-inscribed with the artist’s signature “LOET,” this work is a sophisticated acquisition for collectors of mid-century modern animalier sculpture.
