Fine Furniture and Decorative Arts

As catalogued, this is not a bronze figural group but some other alloy (spelter). Appears to be an early 20th century casting with later gilt finish. Finish fairly even (bright) throughout but with a few scattered minor losses to back. Figures themselves appear complete except for male who is lacking a finger to his left hand and elements (branches?) to both hands. Area of splitting to the naturalistic base between the feet of the two figures. Base is painted wood. Additional images available upon request.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
