"In 1929, Paul Manship began work on a huge bronze gateway filled with animal figures for the Bronx Zoo. He sculpted these bears as part of that design, which was never executed. Manship later combined three individual bears on a single base to form Group of Bears. This casting was produced from the original mold after Manship's death by his son, John Manship."
