Outdoor Landscape Bronze Boy Statue Reading Sculpture BOKK-166
This bronze boy statue depicts a little boy sitting on a tree branch and leaning against a mailbox to read a book. The whole picture is very harmonious, full of youth and hope. Trevi’s artist’s superb technique casts the boy’s movements and expressions very naturally, just like a real person.
Clay Model
Before casting bronze figure statues, Trevi’s artists would first carve a 1:1 clay mold, which is related to the appearance of the entire bronze sculpture, so it is a test of the artist’s skills.
Trevi’s artist responsible for casting figure statues has rich experience, and has participated in the production of thousands of clay models before starting to independently cast statues. Therefore, Trevi’s bronze figure statues are not only high-quality, but also very close to real people.
Silica Sol Technique
People usually choose to place this bronze boy statue outdoors as a landscape sculpture, so they are worried that the statue would have green spots or white spots due to oxidation.
During 40 years of experience, Trevi has been constantly improving its technique, and finally chose the silica sol technique to minimize the green spots of the bronze sculpture.
This is why Trevi has so many repeat customers, many of whom report that our bronze landscape sculptures are very durable and easy to maintain.
Patina
Trevi used Patina to paint the bronze boy statue. The final color is not only beautiful, but also not heavy, not easy to fade, and would become more and more natural as time goes by. Trevi’s bronze sculptures could bring people visual enjoyment.

FAQs
What’s the material?
Material: The material of the statue is then decided by the client. The sculptor may also use a small clay model to better portray his conception of the design. The clay model can be modified to fine tune the client’s wishes.
Bronze Sculpture Statue
Mini-Sculpture: Finally, the bronze sculpture artist may finalize the miniature model of the final design in order to give the client a preview into how the final product will look. This model is made using the material decided, and it can be used by the client for marketing purposes so that he can raise funds for the sculpture.
Creating the Backbone: The backbone of the bronze statue, also called the armature consists of a steel frame with foam added to it in order to resemble the rough outline of the final product. This is then sealed with a latex coat to secure it.
The Sculpting: The main work starts only now. Many pounds of hot clay are used and applied by hand to “block in” the design for the first time. The bronze sculpture artist then invests a lot of time adding more clay, removing some clay and molding the clay until the final product finally resembles the required design. Tiny details are added on to give more preciseness to the bronze statue and make it more real.
How do I clean and maintain a bronze sculpture?
Remove dust with a damp cloth.
Do not use metal objects or wire brushes to clean the sculpture.
Do not apply abrasives or cleansers that will possibly scratch the finish.
ZUD – Non- Abrasive Cleaner. Use to remove stubborn stains. Zud cleans all metal surfaces including bronze. Zud can be used in powder or liquid form.
Lemon Oil – Apply a small amount of oil with a paintbrush or soft cloth. Cover the entire figure with oil. Wipe the surface gently with a soft cloth to take off the excess oil.
Paste Wax- A very thin, even coat of wax should be applied with a soft cloth. Allow the wax to sit and dry before polishing. Wax should be applied after bronze has been cleaned and dried. Do not apply if using lemon oil.
Do Nothing: Many bronze owners prefer to sit back and enjoy the natural reaction and aging process of their sculpture.

What’s the wax?
Ancient Sculpture Gallery is proud to present you with lost wax bronze reproductions of statues and busts from the Egyptian, Greek, Hellenistic, Roman, Asian Oriental, and Western civilizations. “Lost Wax” bronze (or hot-cast bronze) is actually 100% pure Bronze – essentially copper and tin. The making of a “lost wax” bronze is a complex and time consuming process, and specific technical expertise is needed to accomplish the task of making a bronze. The most known and used process for making “lost wax” involves pouring of molten bronze. This is the same method used by the ancient civilizations to create bronze sculptures. Our lost wax bronze sculptures are produced in this same technique.
