Reading Time in Tree
Signed Bronze Sculpture
By Jim Davidson
Size: 16″H x 14″L x 9″W, 22 Lb.

Revisit the sweet innocence of youth, quiet imagination, and those carefree afternoons lost in a great story. Created by renowned figurative sculptor Jim Davidson, “Reading Time in Tree” is an exceptional, museum-quality bronze sculpture that captures a nostalgic moment frozen in time.

Measuring 16 inches high by 14 inches long and weighing a solid 22 pounds, this charming composition depicts a young boy perched comfortably in the fork of a rugged tree limb. Resting with his back against the thick branch and his feet propped casually up the trunk, he cradles an open book in his lap with both hands. From his left arm, his trusty book bag dangles by its strap—a subtle, narrative detail that highlights Davidson’s legendary storytelling skill. Designed as a captivating accent piece, it brings warmth, literary charm, and artistic depth to any luxury library bookshelf, executive desk, or sunlit reading nook.
