AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Small Roman bronze male figure, possibly a mythological figure or a warrior. Carries a 'Gladius' (sword) on his back.
Large, heavy piece. Private collection, brought in in 1966. Inherited from grandfather, who built the collection in the 1960's.
Note: free shipping is included. For shipping to islands, such as Gran Canaria and Madeira, a surcharge may apply. This will be agreed with the buyer in advance. When shipping outside the EU, the shipping time may be longer due to the application and processing of the necessary export permit. Any additional costs, such as levies, import duties, taxes and clearance charges, are in that case the responsibility of the buyer.
