Jardin des Tuileries - Tigre terrasant un crocodile



Tigre terrasant un crocodile
Auguste Cain (1873)

 
(Tiger overwhelming a crocodile)
Overwhelming?  I would say that he is going to "eat" the crocodile!
This is perhaps my favorite of the bronze animal statues in the park.
I love the powerful image in bronze.
