Bronzes Drum Shaman Bear €5,200.00 I discovered at the flea market a very beautiful old photo of a Central Asian shaman wearing a bear skin, the animal's head covering his skull.

These representations made... View

Bronzes Bear in Kamchatka €5,900.00 A revisited version of FISHING IN KAMCHATKA, this sculpture tells an additional story.
