”

With of the success of the North American Wild Sheep monument program, Rick Taylor monuments garnered international attention.  The Mongolian ambassador to Canada contacted Rick in British Columbia and traveled from Ottawa to Kaslo to discuss a project to create a bronze monument of the mighty High Altai Argali.  Knowing that Rick had already traveled twice to Mongolia , and was familiar with Ulanbataar , the ambassador suggested another trip to find a suitable location and do some field research.  On that trip it was decided that the park in front of the Natural History Museum would be ideal and Rick returned home to make the maquette in one- third scale.  At that years hunters’ conventions he found twenty five sponsors who’s purchase of the smaller maquette funded the making of the monument.  The next year, the monument was shipped by container to Mongolia, through China and in September of 2006, Rick and his crew returned for a fourth time to Ulanbataar   for the installation.  During the dedication of the bronze monument Rick was awarded the Presidential Silver Star of Freedom by mayor of the city, a huge honor indeed.  The event was covered by the local television channel and caused much excitement as many city dwellers had never heard of the mighty Argali sheep or the role that sportsman play in the protection of their national treasure.

“Man is a Hunter” (Mammoth and Hunters) by Rick Taylor

The title “Man is a Hunter” says it all.  Human beings evolved as hunter gatherers and devised ingenious tools and methodology to overcome huge physical challenges.  Man developed hundreds of techniques to kill animals for their survival.  Here is a scene from 25,000 years ago as ancient hunters with “Clovis point ” stone tipped spears attempt to harvest a wooly mammoth, a common animal of the grassland steppes.  During this interglacial period, human beings and wildlife crossed a land bridge which is now the Bering Sea and spread southward across the North American Continent.   Many fossils and frozen remains of wooly mammoths are unearthed annually.  Sometimes intact tusks up to 12 feet long are uncovered.  Broken ivory is made into small objects and is legal to trade.  “Man is a Hunter” bears a  scrimshawed fossilized mammoth ivory tag.  This limited edition bronze sculpture is especially coveted by those who collect the ancient wooly mammoth artifacts as it tells the story of the hunt from a prehistoric perspective. Human beings are genetically predisposed to hunt and still today carry on that tradition although our modern tools now favor the hunter rather than the hunted.   “Man is a Huntert” has an enhanced color patina and stands 21″ tall.  The edition is limited to 48. $18,000 USD includes crating and shipping is US and Canada.  THIS EDITION IS SOLD OUT
