Description:

A whimsical and rare piece from The Collection of Unorthodox Taxidermy by Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr. Seuss), the Turtle-Necked Sea-Turtle is a hand-painted cast-resin sculpture adapted from one of Geisel’s 1930s originals. This fantastical sea creature exemplifies Dr. Seuss’s playful imagination and sculptural wit—where marine life meets the surreal charm of his illustrated worlds. Each sculpture was individually cast, finished, and hand-painted from a master mold; all models were destroyed afterward, ensuring the integrity of the edition.

Notes:

Produced in 2008 and authorized by The Estate of Theodor Seuss Geisel, this edition remains among the most sought-after Seuss art releases. Turtle-Necked Sea-Turtle pairs beautifully with Sea-Going Dilemma Fish and other works in the Unorthodox Taxidermy series.
