Height 16 in., Length 19 in., Depth 7 in. Wrought iron sculpture of a cow by American artist Robert D. Cumpston (1930–2018). Fabricated from hand-worked and welded iron elements, the piece presents a stylized bovine form rendered in simplified planes and linear construction. The natural oxidized surface lends warmth and texture, emphasizing the material qualities of the iron while enhancing the sculptures rustic character. The work reflects late 20th-century American studio metal traditions, blending folk-art sensibility with modernist fabrication techniques.
