The bronze holds the tension in the back legs and the extended foreleg reaching for the next stride, and the cat looks caught mid-motion rather than posed. It's a striking piece for an entrance, a terrace or a garden view line where scale matters. At 35 kg, it's one of the heaviest pieces in the collection, so buyers should plan for professional installation when placing it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLarge Chasing Cheetah is one of the anchor pieces in '\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/benguelacove.co.za\/pages\/carol-bryant-sculpture-artist-exhibition\" title=\"Where the wild things come to rest Sculptures Benguela Cove\"\u003eWhere the wild things come to rest\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e', Carol Bryant's exhibition at Benguela Cove Lagoon Wine Estate, on show from 2 October 2026 to 31 March 2027.

Because the dash was a bit slower, I could finally witness the amazing way their spines stretch to lock in that extra burst of speed. It's the ultimate edge over their prey, well, sometimes.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 124 x 24 x 53 cm (L x W x H)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrice\u003c\/strong\u003e: On enquiry \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/benguelacove.co.za\/pages\/carol-bryant-sculpture-artist-exhibition#Sculpture_enquiry\" title=\"Bronze Cheetah Sculpture by Carol Bryant\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnquire Now\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Benguela Cove Lagoon Wine Estate","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55704879628361,"sku":"CBSBLCC2026","price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/6151\/1241\/files\/Large-Chasing-Cheetah_Carol_Bryant.png?v=1783952146","url":"https:\/\/benguelacove.co.za\/products\/chasing-cheetah","provider":"Benguela Cove Lagoon Wine Estate","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
