Statue, GALILÉE - 23 cm - Spelter

Beautiful statue of the scientist Galileo in Renaissance style, probably dating from the early 20th century.
The sculpture is made of regule.
The object has been restored to unify its patina with a traditional blend of natural wax.
It is mounted on a recent plinth in steatite stone, whose rough, mineral appearance emphasizes the historical character of the subject.
