This 19th-century ceramic figurine, "Tiger" by Mary Atwood, depicts a tiger standing on a reddish-brown base. The tiger is painted with yellow fur and black stripes, and its face is accented with black facial features. This whimsical sculpture reflects the Victorian fascination with exotic animals and nature. "Tiger" is a charming example of decorative art from the era, currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
