Art of Bronze was privileged to provide the spectacular bronze eagle sculpture “Dinner for Two” for the entrance to the Blackwater NWR Visitor Center.  The sculpture features a bald eagle with fish in its talons swooping down into its nest where a young eaglet is anxiously waiting.  Art of Bronze was honored to work with the donor of this sculpture whose passion and love for the eagles that nest with their young at Blackwater is praiseworthy!

Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) was established in 1933 as a waterfowl sanctuary for birds migrating along the Atlantic Flyway, and currently encompasses more than 32,000 acres.  The refuge contains one-third of Maryland’s tidal wetlands, which makes it an ecologically important area within the state.  It has been referred to as the “Everglades of the North,” and has been called one of the “Last Great Places” by the Nature Conservancy.

Blackwater NWR is home to the largest breeding population of American bald eagles on the East Coast, north of Florida.  In addition, Blackwater NWR has been designated as an Internationally Important Bird Area.

 

  • Patina / Coloring

    Art of Bronze is known for its exclusive and beautiful patinas. We specialize in creating traditional patinas of brown, burgundy, green (verde) or a brown & verde green combination. We are also experts in creating exotic colors. Let the Art of Bronze enhance the wonderful quality and detail of your new sculpture with our world-class patinas. No two patinas are exactly a like which will make your sculpture a unique treasure.

  • Maintenance

    Bronze lasts forever and will never rust, warp or contort. It is an alloy (a mixture of metals) and will oxidize over the years. This process will not hurt the statue. In fact, it can enhance the beauty by turning the statue many wonderful shades of greens, blues, whites and yellows. For the client that wants to maintain the original patina/coloring of their newly acquired work of art, Art of Bronze has several secrets. Every statue and placement will have different requirements and it is best to discuss your needs with Art of Bronze.
