Description : Also by Martha Hastings is a carved erect animal whose paws are projected forward and whose legs are gathered up in a fashion recalling the great cedar totemic bears of the Amerindians of the Pacific Coast. This comparison may appear extravagant, for the grey stone sculpture in question is of small stature. The traits of the animal, of heavy but dignified bearing, are subtly suggested by the delicate channels in the stone block which serves to delineate the limbs and the features of the head. Furthermore, a few incisions appear at the level of the joints and upon the countenance." (Jacqueline Fry, Ministic Sculpture, Introduction)
