AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Important sculpture in solid bronze depicting a nude male figure of classical taste, inspired by the Greco-Roman statuary tradition.
The work presents:
Height: 60 cm
Weight: 18 kg
Material: solid bronze
Patina: natural green from oxidation, uniform and consistent with age.
Bronze-integrated base
The figure is depicted in an elegant and dynamic pose, with lateral drapery and a decorative branch, an iconographic allusion to the classical and mythological world.
The anatomical modeling is accurate and well-proportioned, with good plastic rendering of the muscle volumes.
The work has no visible signature. The quality of execution and the fusion suggest a 20th-century production, probably Italian or French, from a sophisticated decorative milieu.
Conditions
Good overall condition
Presence of normal surface oxidation and signs consistent with age. Structurally solid, without evident cracks.
