The knowledge of Anne Shingleton and respect for the animal world is such that the artist is able to enter into their everyday reality. It seems that Anne understands their fears, limits and their daily struggles for survival. Before creating each piece, she studies animals alive and their anatomy for a long time. She chooses smaller and lesser known animals, and instead of making portraits, an operation that would be a challenge in itself, she likes to create a story behind each piece, but above all add a playful look like in this replica.
The artist represents a bigger swan than normal that struts and stretches to give his huge wings some powerful flap. There are also 4 other animals included in the base; a snail, a lizard, a jumping frog and a toad in a hole. These animals can be discovered around the swan's feet and are as good as a child can see and caress them.
