This elegant bronze sculpture beautifully captures the grace and dynamism of a blue marlin as it leaps from the oceans surface, momentarily suspended in mid-air. The piece is a testament to the majestic beauty of this iconic species, revered and celebrated by fishermen and enthusiasts alike. Commissioned by a dedicated collector, the sculpture aspires to serve a larger purpose as a public monument at the entrance of Kona, Hawaiia fitting homage to the blue marlin, a creature deeply embedded in the local culture and traditions. By portraying the marlin in its natural, breathtaking state, the work hopes to inspire conservation efforts, encouraging fishermen to tag and release this now-threatened species. Crafted with meticulous detail, the sculpture is 100 percent bronze, hand-cast using the traditional lost wax method, and features a rich brown patina. Mounted on a sleek black marble base, it exudes elegance and durability. Signed by renowned Portuguese artist Miguel Lopez, also known as Milo, this piece is a celebration of artistry and environmental stewardship.
