Description: This charming figurine depicts a humorous rural scene with three sheep-a ram, a ewe, and a lamb-on the wrong side of a fence.

This particular piece is part of the “All Creatures Great and Small” collection, which was inspired by the beloved books of James Herriot (the pen name of veterinary surgeon James Alfred Wight). The series captured the heartwarming and often humorous essence of rural life and the animals Herriot cared for in the Yorkshire Dales. Pieces from this collection are particularly sought after by collectors due to their connection to a cherished literary and television classic. The company’s figurines are celebrated for their artistry and realistic portrayal of animals, making them treasured collectibles. Artist: Anne Wall (signed). Title: “Wrong Side of the Fence”. Edition: Limited Edition, 782/1500. Origin: Hand Made in Scotland. Condition: Good pre-owned condition. There is a small chip on one of the fence posts (see photo). The figurine and base are otherwise in great shape. Measurements: The figurine is approximately 5.5 inches tall and weighs 1357g (including the base), as shown in the photos. Base: The original wooden base is included and is separate from the figurine. This limited edition piece is a must-have for Border Fine Arts collectors and fans of James Herriot.
