By this time there was criticism of Landseer for the excessive length of time which had gone past, some direct, some ironic: ‘The public was agreeably surprised during the past month to find a huge boarding placed round Trafalgar Square. It was received as evidence that Sir Edwin Landseer had awakened from his sleep, and that the lions were about to be in their places. Soon, however, it was ascertained that the paviour [paving stone layer] and not the painter was busied in finishing the very ill-used locality, and the public was doomed to another disappointment.’ In the event, it was only in 1866 that the first of the four lions was completed, and they were finally emplaced in 1867, almost a decade after Landseer had been awarded the commission. Four giant bronze lion statues guard the entrance to the Residenz, supported by pedestals festooned with a half-human, half-animal face. Note the creatures' remarkably shiny noses. If you wait a moment, you'll see the reason for the sheen: scores of people walk by and casually rub one or all four noses. It's supposed to bring wealth and good luck.   Much goes into the creation of a piece like Dawn Patrol. The casting of it was facilitated by the Strand branch of Sculpture Casting Services, in the Western Cape, reportedly the largest, highly specialised fine art foundry in Africa.   But before it gets there, Little starts by crafting a small version, perfecting finer detail on pose and proportion.   This was dramatically scaled up to an intermediate 2.4m version. Then, with the aid of the foundry, an armature or frame is built. A team of people then work on it. Some 500kg of a wax-based clay is applied to slowly create the detail and character of the piece. A mould is then made from this.
