Dancing Bear

Also known as Honey Bear

A WPA-era bronze bear on its hind legs at the Central Park Zoo. Like the dancing sheep of Ostfriesland and the dancing horse of Overijssel already in this register, the dance here is an animal's, and the town still called it one.

Do you recognize the dance?

We have not filed this one under a style. Plenty of sculptures show dancing without showing a particular dance — but if you can see a form here, telling us connects this sculpture to everything else we hold on it.
