Antique sculpture "Borzoi Dog". Made of gilded bronze with detailed elaboration of all elements. Europe, XX century.


Since ancient times, people have used dogs for hunting. For this purpose, people bred a special breed. These are greyhounds that are able to pursue the victim for a long time, drive and protect the prey until the owner approaches. The elongated shape of the skull provides the greyhounds with a wide field of vision. They have the ability to develop high speed thanks to their long legs.
