Gulper Fantasy
8" x 5" x 5" © Bathsheba L. Grossman, 1995.Hand-finished cast bronze.
One day I went to the Museum of Natural History in New York, and spent several hours in the fish room there. They have models of a great many fishes and other marine lifeforms, and among them a creature whose tag described it as "the bizarre and spectacular Gulper Eel". The next day I was inspired to make this piece.
