TIL, thanks!
(also good to know I described it correctly and they're not meant to be fighting or anything lol)It also inspired the song "The Teddy Bears Picnic" and has been the inspiration for when the Stock Market is in "a bear market"

My wife and I have had this print in our house for over 20 years. I have always loved it. Currently it hangs right above my record player.
I kinda need this to pride my walls. It's magnificent
