This Wild life scene is carved on moufflon horn. The scene represents two wolves and a deer fighting. The carving looks rather delicate and light thanks to flowing lines, eleborated tree branches and the soft colour of the material.
This composition in which separate sculptures of the animals (the whole or a part of the body) are used has the effect of space and movement. The boar and the dogs are carved of wood and are fixed onto the moose antler which is carved as a wood background.
This composition of a wood grouse and a dog (laika) carved on a moose antler is an example of mixed carving technique. The figure of the wood grouse stands out carved in the antler and the figure of the dog is an additional element, a sculpture carved in wood.
