A “sculpture” by Damien Hirst.
From artdaily.org:
Sotheby’s London will present Beautiful Inside My Head Forever, a major auction of new works by Damien Hirst, on 15 and 16 September 2008. …
The centrepiece of the auction, The Golden Calf, is a monumental new sculpture: a bull in formaldehyde, whose head is crowned by a solid gold disc and whose hooves and horns are cast in 18- carat solid gold. Encased in a gold-plated stainless steel and glass box, it measures 215.4 by 320 by 137.2 cm. This exceptional work, which unites the artist’s interests in science, religion, beauty and death, is estimated to realise £8-12 million.
