Description from the seller

SEGER, ERNST
1868 Neurode - Berlin 1939
Phryne
From my collection, marble, bronze, brown patinated. On a rectangular pedestal with a semi-oval, stepped front element, a uniform plinth featuring a full-figure depiction of a young woman removing her dress. Her right side of the body is visible. On her head, which she turns to the side, she wears a crown. On the plinth, it is inscribed 'E. Seger', H. 60 cm (23.6 in), approximately 37 kg.
Condition: Unfortunately, it fell once many years ago, and since then it has been missing an arm. The arm is still preserved in parts. However, it is still very beautiful to look at. Its left arm and right toe need to be restored. Please look at the photos; photos are part of the auction.
