      It's greyhound, Mene used the breed for a lot of his sculptures. Nice piece, especially if it's original.

      Thanks, We did alot of reseach for the last auction. This was reseached on askart.com, found two prior sales and this is the correct size and marking of those. I hope we got the right one, tho we didn't pay alot for this. Seems we were the only bronze buy that day.
