Large and rare 19th Century Grand Tour Bronze of Diane de Gabies.


This example is rare as it has been finished in both Gold & Silver Gilt. Is of good weight and approximately 35cm high.


The bronze came from the Paris home/collection of Dame Olivia de Havilland.


This is very striking and has been made to a very high level of detail and craftsmanship. Just look at the gold band in her hair, the gold toggle on her robe and the fine chasing overall. Completed by a very skilled hand.


The bronze is signed by A.Lemaire.


The condition is very good no damage with only slight wear to the finish and the base is not perfectly flat by a couple of millimetres.
