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:

"This giant and oft maligned species of bear is usually portrayed foraging or on the prowl, either way, on the edge of menace. This one takes on teddy bear attributes as it lolls with no seeming agenda. Its unretractable claws, however, speak volumes as to its readiness to perform at a moment's notice. I imagine the gravel bed he rests on is a salmon river, and the bear is resting up after gorging himself, so perhaps, not too much of a threat at this moment.
