Anna Hyatt Huntington worked as a sculptor for 84 years.

Description

A Paraguayan jaguar named Señor Lopez, housed at the New York Zoological Park (now the Bronx Zoo), fascinated Anna Hyatt Huntington, who spent hours studying and sketching him. She also created small clay models on the spot, later modifying them in her studio and having them cast in bronze. Reaching Jaguar was one of her most popular compositions, with more than 250 casts produced.
