Golden Eagle Art Gallery is pleased to offer an extensive collection of world-renowned artworks by Canadian wildlife artist, Robert Bateman.  World-travelled and well versed, Bateman always tells a great story about each of his creations. Here is what he has to say about this piece:  

"The cape buffalo is a powerful and dangerous African mammal. Often mistaken for the slovenly domestic water buffalo, the cape buffalo is more like a tough, Spanish fighting bull. Here I have shown a mature bull in repose.  Something has startled him and his ever-present cattle egret companions - perhaps an approaching elephant or a lion."
