You are viewing a wonderful bronze casting depicting a naked female body. The piece has a lovely brown patina to it. Often artists would create smaller studies such as these as a kind of sketch for larger works. We cannot find a signature on this piece so we do not know who the artist was in this case. These pieces are popular as decorative items as they are very appealing to the eye and lend an air of sophistication to interiors schemes. We bought this whilst on a buying trip in Italy from a local dealer. Being bronze this will last forever without rusting and hence is a great investment as it will always appreciate in value. Aside from being aesthetically pleasing and nice to look at they can also become heirlooms. Bronze is any of several alloys consisting mainly of copper and tin. Neither ancient nor modern bronzes consist only of these two metals. Zinc, lead, and silver were added to bronze alloys by Greek and Roman founders for use in tools, weapons, coins, and objects of art. Zinc, lead, and other metals are occasionally present in modern bronze. Dimensions are in inches: Width x Depth x Height 8 x 8 x 21 Dimensions are in CM: Width x Depth x Height 20 x 20 x 53
