In the field of sculpting, bronze is known as the most popular metal in cast metal sculptures, and often times a cast bronze sculpture is simply called a 'bronze'. Common bronze alloys are used for bronze sculptures as they have the likeable and yet unusual property of being able to expand slightly before they set, hence having the ability to fill the finest details of a mold. As the bronze cools, it also shrinks a little, making separation from the mold an easier task. The bronze alloys used in sculptures have a strength and lack of brittleness (which is also called ductility) that is an advantage when sculptures in action are to be made. This advantage is particularly beneficial when other sculpting materials like ceramic or stone materials are compared. <br>The creation of extensive figures is possible, due to these qualities. Certain examples include the Jeté or the equestrian statue of Richard the Lionheart. Modern bronze alloys used for Sculptures for Sale comprises 90% of copper and 10% of tin, while older alloys used compositions that were slightly different from this. Bronze statues have been around for a very long time. In the old world, great civilizations have had sculptures of bronze worked on for art, even from the time the alloy for first used for sharp weapons. Life size scaling of bronze sculpting was done first by the Greeks; with very few examples still existing in good condition. One of such is that of the seawater-preserved bronze sculpture called 'The Victorious Athlete,' which needed a lot of meticulous efforts to have it at its present state of acceptable display.
