LET ME KNOW IF THIS PIECE BECOMES AVAILABLE

A striking bronze sculpture by wildlife artist Steve Winterburn, as part of our Autumn 2018 collection.

Steve’s art is the result of years of experimentation for the former painter, who has previously sold his work in Harrods and Selfridges. Using his innate understanding of engineering and design, he incorporates inspirations from his travels to India, Peru, Kenya and Australia.

Each of his animals is hand-finished and patinated by himself, with the self-taught sculptor creating them in his sprawling nine-room studio in Yorkshire. To develop his skills, he delved into the closely-guarded secrets of foundrymen to master mould-making skills and the manipulation of molten bronze.

He says: “The chemicals and heat bring the sculptures to life. Having worked so closely with wildlife on conservation projects, I wanted to capture this ‘essence’ in my art.” 

Sculpture height: 71.5cm

Out for delivery

Most orders are sent via a courier, and you will receive full tracking details. For some delicate orders within the UK, we may deliver the artwork personally. If this applies to your order, we will contact you directly to arrange the delivery.

Our artwork is meticulously manufactured in Birmingham, UK, to ensure the highest quality control. Due to the made-to-order nature of our products, we advise delivery can take up to four weeks from the date of your order. This careful process ensures that each piece meets our exacting standards before it reaches your door. Click here for more information.

Please note that if multiple artworks are purchased within the same order, they may be delivered separately for efficient delivery.

 

Returns

We want you to be absolutely happy with your artwork, so we offer a 14 day cool off period for you to take a look at the artwork in your home and make sure you're comfortable with it. If for any reason you decide it's not for you, we'll either come and collect the artwork or arrange to collect the artwork free of charge, alternatively you can drop the artwork into one of our galleries.

For orders outside of the UK, the same applies - please contact us and we can arrange collection of the artwork. Click here for more information.

Frequently asked questions

Can I order to collect in a gallery?

At checkout, you'll have the option to have your order delivered to your home or to collect it from one of our galleries across the UK. For more information on delivery, visit our delivery page here.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes, Castle Fine Art is based in the UK, but we ship internationally. All of our international orders are delivered via DHL, you can find out more here.

How long will my order take to arrive?

Most artwork orders will need to be professionally mounted and framed before being dispatched, so delivery can take up to four weeks from the date you placed your order, but we do strive to deliver your order as soon as we can. Books and gift cards are delivered within 2-3 working days. Please note, if multiple artworks are purchased within the same order, they may be delivered separately for efficient delivery. Find out more here.

How will I receive my certificate of authenticity?

All our limited edition artwork has a certificate of authenticity which will be included in your order alongside your artwork.

I'm an artist, how can I submit my art?

We are committed to discovering and developing talented, creative artists who love contemporary art as much as we do. Find out how to submit your art here.

Is my art insured?

Artwork is one of the few insurable items that is likely to appreciate in value over time, so it is important that you are protected by a specialist policy that can accommodate its true worth. Find out about your options here.

What happens after I order?

Once you've completed your purchase, a confirmation receipt will be sent via email. You will also receive a follow-up phone call from one of our art consultants to provide confirmation, finalise the details of your preferred delivery method and answer any further questions you may have.

What is the difference between a limited edition and an original?

An original work of art is a one-off piece - painting, sculpture, mixed media - which is made by the artist themselves. When you buy an original piece of work, it comes with the knowledge that you own something incredibly special; almost a piece of the creator themselves. A limited edition is a translation of an original piece and there is a fixed number of these made. The piece will be signed by the artist, and the edition number will show you which number in the series you have purchased. Read more about the different types of art we sell here.

Will you install my art?

We do offer an installation service should you need assistance. You can contact our art consultants for further information here. Please note that this is currently only available in mainland UK.

About

Steve Winterburn

From heart-warming and authentic memorials to sports legends in key stadiums, to ferocious animal sculptures inspired by his first-hand experiences with wildlife conservation around the world for over 10 years. Steve's art fuses the work of artist and artisan as he runs his own bronze-casting studio that calls upon thousand-year old techniques from foundrymen to create incredibly detailed bronze artworks.

Over 25 years of fantastic art

In 1995, we opened our first-ever gallery in Stratford-upon-Avon. With just one goal in mind - to make our art accessible to all - our fledgling company began to spread its roots.

Craftsmanship and Quality

Every piece of art is mounted, glazed or framed by hand, with our bespoke framing service selected by our creative department.

Built to last

Our foundations are built on a passion for art, and many of our staff (and collectors!) have been with us from the very beginning.
