The Story
A great shaggy head of the plains, mounted on a shaped walnut shield. It asks for a high wall and a room that does not mind being looked at.
Modelled in a forward-facing stance with a slight inclination, the taxidermy incorporates the animal's natural curved black horns and dense, woolly winter coat. The specimen is secured to a moulded backboard of solid walnut, shaped in a traditional sporting escutcheon pattern.
