Jiang Taigong's fishing sculptures usually feature the image of an old man sitting by a river or lake, holding a fishing rod, fishing. The creation of this cast bronze sculpture of the old man fishing is inspired by people's love for nature and leisure life, as well as thinking about time and history.
The creation process of Jiang Taigong's fishing sculpture requires many steps. First of all, the sculptor needs to conceive the image and posture of the old man, as well as the surrounding environment and scene. The sculptor then needs to translate the idea into a sculptural clay sketch, a process that requires several revisions and refinements to ensure that the final product meets the sculptor's intentions. Next, the sculptor needs to turn the clay into a plaster cast, a process that requires great detail and patience. Finally, the sculptor needs to put the plaster cast model into a furnace of cast copper, which is melted and cooled at high temperatures to form the final cast bronze sculpture of the fishing old man.
The merit of the cast bronze sculpture of the old man fishing lies in its durability and plasticity. Cast copper materials are chemically stable and not susceptible to corrosion and oxidation, so they can be stored for a long time. In addition, cast copper materials are also very malleable, allowing them to be molded into a variety of complex shapes and details. These advantages make the cast bronze fishing old man sculpture a very suitable sculpture for collection and investment.
