This early yet accomplished work by Henry showcases a smooth, rounded form and is rendered in a polished black finish, creating a sleek, almost silhouetted figure. The bear's sturdy, thick legs contribute to the sculpture's solid and weighty presence. Capturing a calm trot, the bear’s head is slightly lowered, as if in mid-stride. Through this work, we sense the artist's intimate knowledge of his subject.
