Dealer Notes
This striking depiction of a woolly mammoth was based on finds made at the start of the 20th century by Eugene Pfitzenmayer in Siberia (Beresowka-Kolyma, 1901; Sangajurachfluß, 1908). By comparison with other modern representations of the mammoth, Pfitzenmayer was able to create a convincing image for his realisation.
